Psalm 102:4-6

Expanded Bible

⁴ My heart is like grass
    that has been ·cut [stricken] and dried.
    I forget to eat my ·food [or bread].
⁵ Because of ·my grief [^Lthe sounds of my groans],
    my ·skin hangs on my bones [^Lbones cling to my flesh].
⁶ I am like a ·desert [wilderness] owl,
    like an owl living among the ·ruins [wastelands; Is. 34:10–15; Zeph. 2:13–15].
