Psalm 109:24

My knees are failing through fasting, and my flesh hath lost its fatness;

Wherefore lift up the hands that hang down, and the failing knees;

My bones cleave to my skin and to my flesh, and I am escaped with the skin of my teeth.

I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is become like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.

When I kept silence, my bones waxed old, through my groaning all the day long.

But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth; I chastened my soul with fasting, and my prayer returned into mine own bosom:

My wounds stink, they are corrupt, because of my foolishness.

And I wept, my soul was fasting: that also was to my reproach; --

My heart is smitten and withered like grass; yea, I have forgotten to eat my bread.

and having fasted forty days and forty nights, afterwards he hungered.

in labour and toil, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.

in labour and toil, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.

Wherefore lift up the hands that hang down, and the failing knees;

When I kept silence, my bones waxed old, through my groaning all the day long.

My wounds stink, they are corrupt, because of my foolishness.

My heart is smitten and withered like grass; yea, I have forgotten to eat my bread.

My bones cleave to my skin and to my flesh, and I am escaped with the skin of my teeth.

And I wept, my soul was fasting: that also was to my reproach; --
