And may this be my consolation, that in afflicting me with sorrow, although he might not be lenient with me, I still do not contradict the words of the Holy One.
For what is my strength, that I may continue? Or what is my goal, so that I may act patiently?
My strength is not the strength of stones, nor is my flesh made of bronze.
Behold, there is no help for me in myself, and my loved ones also have withdrawn from me.
He who takes away mercy from his friend, abandons the fear of the Lord.
My brethren have disregarded me, like a torrent that passes swiftly through the steep valleys.
Those who fear frost, snow will rush over them.
