Thou gavest them to eat the bread of tears, and thou wilt give them to drink in tears by measure.
And Jehovah gave to you the bread of straits and the waters of oppression, and he will no more cover those teaching thee, and thine eyes shall be seeing those teaching thee:
My tears were to me bread day and night, in saying to me all the days, Where is thy God?
For I ate ashes as bread, and I mingled my drink with weeping.
My soul refused to touch these as the loathsomeness of my bread.
Understanding to Asaph. Wherefore, O God, didst thou reject forever? will thine anger smoke against the sheep of thy feeding?
How long, O Jehovah? wilt thou be angry forever? shall thy jealousy burn as fire?
Thou didst cover with anger, and thou wilt pursue us: thou didst slay, thou didst not pity.
Thou didst cover over thyself with a cloud from a prayer passing through.
