I was as a bottle in smoke; I forgot not thy laws.
My skin was black from above me, and my bones burnt from heat
In thy laws I will delight: I will not forget thy word.
I wandered as a lost sheep; seek thy servant, for I forgat not thy commands.
The cords of the unjust passed over me: I forget not thy law.
My strength was dried up as the potsherd, and my tongue cleaving to my jaws; and thou wilt set me for the dust of death.
