²¹ You have ^(A)turned cruel to me;
    with the might of your hand you ^(B)persecute me.

²³ They lay hold on bow and javelin;
    they are ^(A)cruel and have no mercy;
    ^(B)the sound of them is like the roaring sea;
they ride on horses,
    set in array as a man for battle,
    against you, O daughter of Zion!”
