7:3 thus 1 I have been made to inherit 2
months of futility, 3
and nights of sorrow 4
have been appointed 5 to me.
7:4 If I lie down, I say, 6 ‘When will I arise?’,
and the night stretches on 7
and I toss and turn restlessly 8
until the day dawns.
7:5 My body 9 is clothed 10 with worms 11 and dirty scabs; 12
my skin is broken 13 and festering.
17:1 My spirit is broken, 14
my days have faded out, 15
the grave 16 awaits me.
31:22 I jumped to conclusions and said, 17
“I am cut off from your presence!” 18
But you heard my plea for mercy when I cried out to you for help.
119:23 Though rulers plot and slander me, 19
your servant meditates on your statutes.
