- why is it:
- "I¹ am not ableª°¹ to bearª°¹ all¹ this¹ peopleª alone,ª because¹ [it is] too heavyª for¹ me. ... And if¹ thou¹ dealª° thus¹ with me, killª° me, I pray thee,¹ out of hand,ª° if¹ I have foundª° favourª in thy sight;ª and let me not¹ seeª° my wretchedness.ª" {Num 11:14-15} + "But he himself¹ wentª° a day'sª journeyª into the wilderness,ª and cameª° and sat downª° under¹ aª juniper tree:ª and he requestedª°¹ for himselfª that he might die;ª° and said,ª° It is enough;ª now,¹ O LORD,ª take awayª° my life;ª for¹ I¹ [am] not¹ betterª than my fathers.ª¹" {1Kg 19:4} + "And he said,ª° I have been very²° jealousª° for the LORDª Godª of hosts:ª for¹ the childrenª of Israelª have forsakenª° thy covenant,ª thrown downª°¹ thine altars,ª and slainª° thy prophetsª with the sword;ª and I,¹ [even] I only,¹ am left;ª° and they seekª°¹ my life,ª to take it away.ª°" {1Kg 19:10} + "O LORD,ª thou hast deceivedª° me, and I was deceived:ª° thou art strongerª° than I, and hast prevailed:ª° I am¹ in derisionª daily,ª¹ every one¹ mockethª° me." {Jer 20:7} + "For¹ the visionª [is] yet¹ for an appointed time,ª but at the endª it shall speak,ª° and not¹ lie:ª° though¹ it tarry,ª° waitª° for it; because¹ it will surely²° come,ª° it will not¹ tarry.ª°" {Hab 2:3}
