Psalms 38:17 For I am ready to halt, and my sorrow is continually before me. Psalms 69:26 For they persecute him whom thou hast smitten; and they talk to the grief of those whom thou hast wounded. Ecclesiastes 1:18 For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow. Ecclesiastes 2:23 For all his days are sorrows, and his travail grief; yea, his heart taketh not rest in the night. This is also vanity.
