4 My strength is gone— I am like dry, dying grass. I even forget to eat.
5 Because of my sadness, I am losing so much weight that my skin hangs from my bones.
6 I am lonely, like an owl living in the desert, like an owl living among old ruined buildings.
7 I cannot sleep. I am like a lonely bird on the roof.
8 My enemies insult me all the time. They make fun of me and use me as an example in their curses.
9 My great sadness is my only food. My tears fall into my drink.
10 You were angry with me, so you picked me up and threw me away.
