My bone cleaveth to my skin and to my flesh, and I am escaped with the skin of my teeth.

My skin is black, [and falls] from me. And my bones are burned with heat.

He also is chastened with pain upon his bed, and with continual strife in his bones,

I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint. My heart is like wax; it is melted within me.

When I kept silence, my bones wasted away through my groaning all the day long.

There is no soundness in my flesh because of thine indignation, nor is there any health in my bones because of my sin.

For my days consume away like smoke, and my bones are burned as a firebrand.

Their visage is blacker than a coal. They are not known in the streets. Their skin clings to their bones. It is withered. It has become like a stick.

And Satan answered LORD, and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man has he will give for his life.

My flesh is clothed with worms and clods of dust. My skin closes up, and breaks out afresh.

He has made my flesh and my skin old. He has broken my bones.

Our skin is black like an oven, because of the burning heat of famine.
