I, Daniel, greatly do my thoughts trouble me, and my countenance is changed on me, and the matter in my heart I have kept.

His cow bringeth forth safely, And doth not miscarry. 11 They send forth as a flock their sucklings, And their children skip, 12 They lift `themselves' up at timbrel and harp, And rejoice at the sound of an organ. 13 They wear out in good their days, And in a moment `to' Sheol go down. 14 And they say to God, `Turn aside from us, And the knowledge of Thy ways We have not desired. 15 What `is' the Mighty One that we serve Him? And what do we profit when we meet with Him?'
