“Earth, don’t cover my blood.
Let my cry have no place to rest.
Even now, behold, my witness is in heaven.
He who vouches for me is on high.
My friends scoff at me.
My eyes pour out tears to God, that he would maintain the right of a man with God, of a son of man with his neighbor!
For when a few years have come, I will go the way of no return.
