¹⁰ My heart throbs. My strength fails me. As for the light of my eyes, it has also left me.

⁷ My eye wastes away because of grief; It grows old because of all my adversaries.

⁹ My eyes are dim from grief. I have called on you daily, Yahweh. I have spread out my hands to you.

³ I am weary with my crying. My throat is dry. My eyes fail, looking for my God.

¹⁶ The crown is fallen from our head: Woe to us! for we have sinned.

¹⁷ For this our heart is faint; For these things our eyes are dim;

¹¹ My eyes do fail with tears, my heart is troubled; My liver is poured on the earth, because of the destruction of the daughter of my people, Because the young children and the infants swoon in the streets of the city.

⁴ My heart flutters, horror has frightened me; the twilight that I desired has been turned into trembling to me.

⁴ Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed within me. My heart within me is desolate.

⁵ I remember the days of old. I meditate on all your doings. I contemplate the work of your hands.

⁶ I spread forth my hands to you. My soul thirsts for you, like a parched land. Selah.

⁷ Hurry to answer me, Yahweh. My spirit fails. Don't hide your face from me, So that I don't become like those who go down into the pit.

¹²³ My eyes fail looking for your salvation, For your righteous word.

⁸¹ My soul faints for your salvation. I hope in your word.

⁸² My eyes fail for your word. I say, "When will you comfort me?"

⁸³ For I have become like a wineskin in the smoke. I don't forget your statutes.

¹ > As the deer pants for the water brooks, So my soul pants after you, God.

¹⁰ For my life is spent with sorrow, My years with sighing. My strength fails because of my iniquity. My bones are wasted away.

²⁷ But Jonathan didn't hear when his father charged the people with the oath: therefore he put forth the end of the rod who was in his hand, and dipped it in the honeycomb, and put his hand to his mouth; and his eyes were enlightened.

²⁸ Then answered one of the people, and said, Your father directly charged the people with an oath, saying, Cursed be the man who eats food this day. The people were faint.

²⁹ Then said Jonathan, My father has troubled the land. Please look how my eyes have been enlightened, because I tasted a little of this honey.
