3 My days disappear like smoke.My bones burn like hot coals.
4 My heart is beaten down and withered like grassbecause I have forgotten about eating.
5 I am nothing but skin and bonesbecause of my loud groans.
6 I am like a desert owl,like an owl living in the ruins.
7 I lie awake.I am like a lonely bird on a rooftop.
8 All day long my enemies insult me.Those who ridicule me use my name as a curse.
9 I eat ashes like breadand my tears are mixed with my drink
