¹⁸ For I am full of words,
    and the spirit^(A) within me compels me;^(B)
19 inside I am like bottled-up wine,
    like new wineskins ready to burst.^(C)
20 I must speak and find relief;
    I must open my lips and reply.^(D)

¹⁹ Oh, my anguish, my anguish!^(A)
    I writhe in pain.^(B)
Oh, the agony of my heart!
    My heart pounds^(C) within me,
    I cannot keep silent.^(D)
For I have heard the sound of the trumpet;^(E)
    I have heard the battle cry.^(F)

My heart^(A) is broken within me;
    all my bones tremble.^(B)
I am like a drunken man,
    like a strong man overcome by wine,
because of the Lord
    and his holy words.^(C)
