[As] the waters fail from the sea, and the river wastes away and dries up,
And the waters shall fail from the sea, and the river shall be wasted and become dry.
Why is my pain perpetual, and my wound incurable, which refuses to be healed? Will thou indeed be to me as a deceitful [brook], as waters that fail?
so man lays down and does not rise. Till the heavens be no more, they shall not awake, nor be roused out of their sleep.
