³ Likewise, I have been given months that are of no use,
    and I have inherited nights filled with misery.
⁴         When I lie down, I ask,
            ‘When will I get up?’
                But the evening is long,
                    and I’m exhausted from tossing about until dawn.
⁵ My body is covered with maggots and scabs.
    My skin is crusted over with sores; then they ooze.
