4For we have not obeyed thy commandments, therefore are we delivered to spoil and to captivity, and death, and are made a fable, and a reproach to all nations, amongst which thou hast scattered us.
5And now, O Lord, great are thy judgments, because we have not done according to thy precepts, and have not walked sincerely before thee:
6And now, O Lord, do with me according to thy will, and command my spirit to be received in peace: for it is better for me to die, than to live.
