My eyehas wastedawaywith grief;It has becomeoldbecause of allmy adversaries.
"Remembernow,OLORD,I beseechYou, howI have walkedbeforeYou in truthand with a wholeheartand have donewhatis goodin Your sight."And Hezekiahweptbitterly.
"My eyehas also growndimbecauseof grief,And allmy membersare as a shadow.
Soam I allottedmonthsof vanity,And nightsof troubleare appointedme.
WhenI keptsilent[about my sin], my bodywastedawayThrough my groaningalldaylong.
My heartthrobs,my strengthfailsme; And the lightof my eyes,eventhat has gonefrom me.
Those who hateme withouta causeare morethanthe hairsof my head;Those who would destroyme are powerful,being wrongfullymy enemies;WhatI did not steal,I thenhave to restore.
My eyehas wastedawaybecauseof affliction;I have calledupon You everyday,O LORD;I have spreadout my handsto You.
You said,"Ah,woeis me! For the LORDhas addedsorrowto my pain;I am wearywith my groaningand have foundnorest."'
Becauseof thisour heartis faint,Becauseof thesethingsour eyesare dim;
