When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me;

In context

14 For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every morning.

15 If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against the generation of thy children.

18 Surely thou didst set them in slippery places: thou castedst them down into destruction.
