Lamentations 5:10

Our skin blisters as from an oven, due to ravaging blasts of the famine.

Now their faces are blacker than coal; they are unrecognized in the streets. Their skin clings to their bones; it has become dry like a stick.

My skin turns black all over me; and my bones seem burned from the heat.

Though I have become like a water skin dried by smoke, I have not forgotten your statutes.

He made my flesh and skin prematurely old; he broke my bones.

Our skin was black like an oven because of the terrible famine.

He made my flesh and skin prematurely old; he broke my bones.

Now their faces are blacker than coal; they are unrecognized in the streets. Their skin clings to their bones; it has become dry like a stick.

My skin turns black all over me; and my bones seem burned from the heat.

Though I have become like a water skin dried by smoke, I have not forgotten your statutes.

Meanwhile, the famine remained severe throughout the region.
