(3) What! is there any reason in vain words? or what will hinder thee from answering?	(3) τί γάρ; µὴ τάξις ἐστὶν ῥήµασιν πνεύµατος; ἢ τί παρενοχλήσει σοι, ὅτι ἀποκρίνῃ;

(4) I also will speak as ye do: if indeed your soul were in my soul’s stead,	(4) κἀγὼ καθ’ ὑµᾶς λαλήσω, εἰ ὑπέκειτό γε ἡ ψυχὴ ὑµῶν ἀντὶ τῆς ἐµῆς·

(6) And would there were strength in my mouth, and I would not spare the movement of my lips.	(5) εἴη δὲ ἰσχὺς ἐν τῷ στόµατί µου, κίνησιν δὲ χειλέων οὐ φείσοµαι.

(7) For if I should speak, I shall not feel the pain of my wound: and if I should be silent, how shall I be wounded the less?	(6) ἐὰν γὰρ λαλήσω, οὐκ ἀλγήσω τὸ τραῦµα· ἐὰν δὲ καὶ σιωπήσω, τί ἔλαττον τρωθήσοµαι;

(9) My falsehood has become a testimony, and has risen up against me: it has confronted me to my face.	(8) καὶ ἐπελάβου µου, εἰς µαρτύριον ἐγενήθη· καὶ ἀνέστη ἐν ἐµοὶ τὸ ψεῦδός µου, κατὰ πρόσωπόν µου ἀνταπεκρίθη.

(10) In his anger he has cast me down; he has gnashed his teeth upon me: the weapons of his robbers have fallen upon me.	(9) ὀργῇ χρησάµενος κατέβαλέν µε, ἔβρυξεν ἐπ’ ἐµὲ τοὺς ὀδόντας, βέλη πειρατῶν αὐτοῦ ἐπ’ ἐµοὶ ἔπεσεν.

(11) He has attacked me with the keen glances of his eyes; with his sharp spear he has smitten me down upon my knees; and they have run upon me with one accord.	(10) ἀκίσιν ὀφθαλµῶν ἐνήλατο, ὀξεῖ ἔπαισέν µε εἰς σιαγόνα, ὁµοθυµαδὸν δὲ κατέδραµον ἐπ’ ἐµοί.

(12) For the Lord has delivered me into the hands of unrighteous men, and thrown me upon the ungodly.	(11) παρέδωκεν γάρ µε ὁ κύριος εἰς χεῖρας ἀδίκου, ἐπὶ δὲ ἀσεβέσιν ἔρριψέν µε·

(13) When I was at peace he distracted me: he took me by the hair of the head, and plucked it out: he set me up as a mark.	(12) εἰρηνεύοντα διεσκέδασέν µε, λαβών µε τῆς κόµης διέτιλεν, κατέστησέν µε ὥσπερ σκοπόν.

(14) They surrounded me with spears, aiming at my reins: without sparing me they poured out my gall upon the ground.	(13) ἐκύκλωσάν µε λόγχαις βάλλοντες εἰς νεφρούς µου οὐ φειδόµενοι, ἐξέχεαν εἰς τὴν γῆν τὴν χολήν µου·
