¹⁶ Bold as a lion you hunt me;
    you repeat your exploits against me.^(A)

¹² I was at ease, and he broke me in two;
    he seized me by the neck and dashed me to pieces;
he set me up as his target;^(A)

⁴ For day and night your hand was heavy upon me;
    my strength was dried up^[a] as by the heat of summer. Selah^(A)

⁸ Let me hear joy and gladness;
    let the bones that you have crushed rejoice.^(A)
