⁸ Ask of me,
and I will make the nations your inheritance
and the ends of the earth your possession.^(A)

⁹ If I fly on the wings of the dawn
and settle down on the western horizon,^[a]

¹⁶ From the ends of the earth we hear songs:
The Splendor of the Righteous One.^(A)
But I said, “I waste away! I waste away!^[a]
Woe is me.”
The treacherous act treacherously;
the treacherous deal very treacherously.^(B)
