Mazmur 69:3

69:3 I am exhausted from shouting for help;

my throat is sore; ¹ 

my eyes grow tired of looking for my God. ² 

Mazmur 78:46

78:46 He gave their crops to the grasshopper,

the fruit of their labor to the locust.

Mazmur 105:44

105:44 He handed the territory of nations over to them,

and they took possession of what other peoples had produced, ³ 

[69:3]  ¹ tn Or perhaps “raw”; Heb “burned; enflamed.”

[69:3]  ² tn Heb “my eyes fail from waiting for my God.” The psalmist has intently kept his eyes open, looking for God to intervene, but now his eyes are watery and bloodshot, impairing his vision.

[105:44]  ³ tn Heb “and the [product of the] work of peoples they possessed.”
