13. I waited patiently all night,but I was torn apart as though by lions.Suddenly, my life was over.
14. Delirious, I chattered like a swallow or a crane,and then I moaned like a mourning dove.My eyes grew tired of looking to heaven for help.I am in trouble, Lord. Help me!”
15. But what could I say?For he himself sent this sickness.Now I will walk humbly throughout my yearsbecause of this anguish I have felt.
16. Lord, your discipline is good,for it leads to life and health.You restore my healthand allow me to live!
