Contextual Overview

¹Why do you keep tormenting me with words? <³ Time after time you insult me and show no shame for the way you abuse me. ⁴ Even if I have done wrong, how does that hurt you? ⁵ You think you are better than I am, and regard my troubles as proof of my guilt. ⁶ Can't you see it is God who has done this? He has set a trap to catch me. ⁷ I protest his violence, but no one is listening; no one hears my cry for justice.
