"My eyehas also growndimbecauseof grief,And allmy membersare as a shadow.
"My faceis flushedfrom weeping,And deepdarknessis on my eyelids,
"My friendsare my scoffers;My eyeweepsto God.
"You have shriveledme up, It has becomea witness;And my leannessrisesup against me, It testifiesto my face.
"My fleshis clothedwith wormsand a crustof dirt,My skinhardensand runs.
I am passinglike a shadowwhen it lengthens;I am shakenofflike the locust.
My eyehas wastedawaywith grief;It has becomeoldbecause of allmy adversaries.
Departfrom me, allyou who doiniquity,For the LORDhas heardthe voiceof my weeping.
For whoknowswhatis goodfor a manduring [his] lifetime,[during] the fewyearsof his futilelife?He will spendthem like a shadow.For whocan tella manwhatwill be afterhim underthe sun?
Becauseof thisour heartis faint,Becauseof thesethingsour eyesare dim;
