13     I cry for help[a] until morning;
like a lion he breaks all my bones;
    from day to night you bring me to an end.[b]

14 Like a swallow or a crane[c] I clamour,
    I moan like a dove.
My eyes are weary with looking upwards.
    O Lord, I am oppressed; be my security!
15 But what can I say? For he has spoken to me,
    and he himself has done it.
All my sleep has fled[d]
    because of the bitterness of my soul.
