23How many are mine iniquities and sinnes? make mee to knowe my transgression, and my sinne. 24Wherefore hidest thou thy face, and holdest me for thine enemie? 25Wilt thou breake a leafe driuen to and fro? and wilt thou pursue the drie stubble? 26For thou writest bitter things against mee, and makest me to possesse the iniquities of my youth. 27Thou puttest my feete also in the stockes, and lookest narrowly vnto all my pathes; thou settest a print vpon the heeles of my feete.
