11'Why did I not die at birth, Come out of the womb and pass away? 12Why were the knees there in front of me, And why the breasts, that I would nurse? 13For now I would have lain down and been quiet; I would have slept then, I would have been at rest, 14With kings and counselors of the earth, Who rebuilt ruins for themselves;King James Version

I would be asleep and at rest. 14I would rest with the world’s kings and prime ministers, whose great buildings now lie in ruins.English Standard Version
