5. Because of my grief,my skin hangs on my bones.
6. I am like a desert owl.I am like an owl living among the ruins.
7. I lie awake.I am like a lonely bird on a housetop.
8. All day long enemies insult me.Those who make fun of me use my name as a curse.
9. I eat ashes as my food.My tears fall into my drinks.
10. Because of your great anger,you have picked me up and thrown me away.
11. My days are like a passing shadow.I am like dried grass.
12. But, Lord, you rule forever.Your fame continues from now on.
