NETBible

“If I cry out, ‘Violence!’ I receive no answer; I cry for help, but there is no justice.

NET Notes

tn The particle is used here as in 9:11 (see GKC 497 §159.w).

tc The LXX has “I laugh at reproach.”

tn The same idea is expressed in Jer 20:8 and Hab 1:2. The cry is a cry for help, that he has been wronged, that there is no justice.

tn The Niphal is simply “I am not answered.” See Prov 21:13b.
