For I have become like a wineskin in the smoke, yet I have not forgotten thy statutes.
For I am become like a bottle in the smoke; Yet do I not forget thy statutes.
For I have become like a bottle [a wineskin blackened and shriveled] in the smoke [in which it hangs], yet do I not forget Your statutes.
For I am become like a wine-skin in the smoke; Yet do I not forget thy statutes.
because I’ve become like a bottle dried up by smoke, though I haven’t forgotten your statutes.
My skin turns black and falls from me, and my bones burn with heat.
I will delight in thy statutes; I will not forget thy word.
I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek thy servant, for I do not forget thy commandments.
Though the cords of the wicked ensnare me, I do not forget thy law.
my strength is dried up like a potsherd, and my tongue cleaves to my jaws; thou dost lay me in the dust of death.
