17 For he breaks me with a storm, and multiplies my wounds without cause.

18 He will not allow me to catch my breath, but fills me with bitterness.

19 If it is a matter of strength, behold, he is mighty! If of justice, 'Who,' says he, 'will summon me?'

20 Though I am righteous, my own mouth shall condemn me. Though I am blameless, it shall prove me perverse.
