不自檢束、無所不為、以困苦加諸我。

不自約束、加我以苦、於我前縱意而行、或作天主鬆我之筋彼亦於我前縱意而行

Now that God has unstrung my bow and afflicted me, they throw off restraint in my presence.

God has made my body weak. It’s like a tent that has fallen down. So those children do what they want to in front of me.

Because God has loosed my cord and humbled me, they have cast off restraint in my presence.

For God has cut my bowstring. He has humbled me, so they have thrown off all restraint.

Because God has loosened my bowstring and oppressed me, they have cast off restraint in my presence.

Now when King David came to Bahurim, there was a man from the family of the house of Saul, whose name was Shimei the son of Gera, coming from there. He came out, cursing continuously as he came.And he threw stones at David and at all the servants of King David. And all the people and all the mighty men were on his right hand and on his left.Also Shimei said thus when he cursed:“ Come out! Come out! You bloodthirsty man, you rogue!The Lord has brought upon you all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose place you have reigned; and the Lord has delivered the kingdom into the hand of Absalom your son. So now you are caught in your own evil, because you are a bloodthirsty man!”

He loosens the bonds of kings, And binds their waist with a belt.

He pours contempt on princes, And disarms the mighty.

And those who passed by blasphemed Him, wagging their headsand saying,“ You who destroy the temple and build it in three days, save Yourself! If You are the Son of God, come down from the cross.”Likewise the chief priests also, mocking with the scribes and elders, said,“ He saved others; Himself He cannot save. If He is the King of Israel, let Him now come down from the cross, and we will believe Him.He trusted in God; let Him deliver Him now if He will have Him; for He said,‘ I am the Son of God.’”Even the robbers who were crucified with Him reviled Him with the same thing.

If anyone among you thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this one’s religion is useless.

I went out full, and the Lord has brought me home again empty. Why do you call me Naomi, since the Lord has testified against me, and the Almighty has afflicted me?”

They also opened their mouth wide against me, And said,“ Aha, aha! Our eyes have seen it.”
