4. I am beaten down like dry grass;I have lost my desire for food.
5. I groan aloud;I am nothing but skin and bones.
6. I am like a wild bird in the desert,like an owl in abandoned ruins.
7. I lie awake;I am like a lonely bird on a housetop.
8. All day long my enemies insult me;those who mock me use my name in cursing.
11. My life is like the evening shadows;I am like dry grass.
12. But you, O Lord, are king for ever;all generations will remember you.
13. You will rise and take pity on Zion;the time has come to have mercy on her;this is the right time.
