the man He imprisons cannot be released.

14Behold, he breaketh down, and it cannot be built again;

He shutteth up a man, and there can be no opening.

14Beholde, he will breake downe, and it can not be built: he shutteth a man vp, and he can not be loosed.

14Behold, he breaks down, and it can’t be built again.

nobody can repair it.

If God puts someone in prison,

that person cannot escape.

14Behold, He breaks down, and it is not built up, || He shuts against a man, || And it is not opened.
