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

⁷ My eye also is dim by reason of sorrow. All my members are as a shadow.

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

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

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

⁹ Have mercy on me, Yahweh, for I am in distress. My eye, my soul, and my body waste away with grief.

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

³ When I kept silence, my bones wasted away through my groaning all day long.
