Is my strength the strength of stones, or is my flesh bronze?
Is my strength the strength of stones? Or is my flesh of brass?
Is my strength and endurance that of stones? Or is my flesh made of bronze?
Is my strength that of rocks, my flesh bronze?
My strength is not the strength of stones, nor is my flesh made of bronze.
My strength is not the strength of stones: nor is my flesh of brass.
“How you have helped one who has no power! How you have assisted the arm that has no strength!
Its bones are tubes of bronze, its limbs like bars of iron.
Its heart is as hard as stone, as hard as the lower millstone.
What is my strength, that I should wait? And what is my end, that I should be patient?
In truth I have no help in me, and any resource is driven from me.
