² For Your ^(A)arrows have sunk deep into me,
And ^(B)Your hand has pressed down on me.
³ There is ^(C)no healthy part in my flesh ^(D)because of Your indignation;
There is no health ^(E)in my bones because of my sin.
⁴ For my ^(F)guilty deeds have gone over my head;
Like a heavy burden they weigh too much for me.
⁵ My ^[a]wounds grow foul and fester
Because of ^(G)my foolishness.
⁶ I am bent over and ^(H)greatly bowed down;
I ^(I)go in mourning all day long.
⁷ For my ^[b]sides are filled with ^(J)burning,
And there is ^(K)no healthy part in my flesh.
⁸ I feel ^(L)faint and ^[c]badly crushed;
I ^[d](M)groan because of the ^[e]agitation of my heart.

³ For my days ^(A)have ended in smoke,
And my ^(B)bones have been scorched like a hearth.
⁴ My heart ^(C)has been struck like ^[a]grass and has ^(D)withered,
Indeed, I ^(E)forget to eat my bread.
⁵ Because of the ^[b]loudness of my groaning
My ^(F)bones ^[c]cling to my flesh.
