Because of the voice of my groaning my bones cling to my skin.
He comes forth like a flower, and is cut down: he flees also as a shadow, and does not continue.
My bone sticks to my skin and to my flesh, and I have escaped with the skin of my teeth.
I am weary with my groaning; all the night I make my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears.
Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity; for the LORD has heard the voice of my weeping.
In the morning it flourishes, and grows up; in the evening it is cut down, and withers.
A merry heart does good like a medicine: but a broken spirit dries up the bones.
Their face is blacker than a coal; they are not known in the streets: their skin clings to their bones; it is withered, it has become like a stick.
And as he did so year by year, when she went up to the house of the LORD, so she provoked her; therefore she wept, and did not eat.
