Wherefore then hast thou brought me forth out of the womb? I had given up the ghost, and no eye had seen me.

Why then did you make me come out of my mother's body? It would have been better for me to have taken my last breath, and for no eye to have seen me,

Δια τι λοιπον με εξηγαγες εκ της μητρας; ειθε να εξεπνεον, και οφθαλμος να μη με εβλεπεν.

Wherefore then hast thou brought me forth out of the womb? Oh that I had given up the ghost, and no eye had seen me!
