I have watched, and I am As a bird alone on the house-top.
You ceased the watches of my eyes, I was too troubled to speak.
My loved ones and my friends stand back from my plague, And my neighbours stand far away.
My being looks to יהוה More than those watching for morning, watching for morning.
O My Elohim, I call by day, but You do not answer; And by night, but I find no rest.
I became a brother of jackals, and a companion of ostriches.
