11 God hands me over to the unjust;[a]
he throws me to the wicked.
12 I was at ease, but he shattered me;
he seized me by the scruff of the neck
and smashed me to pieces.
He set me up as his target;(A)
13 his archers[b] surround me.
He pierces my kidneys without mercy
and pours my bile on the ground.
