11 God hands me over to unjust men;[a]
He throws me into the hands of 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.
