Psalm 109:24

My knees {buckle} from fasting, and my body grows lean without fat.

Therefore strengthen your slackened hands and your weakened knees,

My bones cling to my skin and to my flesh, and I have escaped by the skin of my teeth.

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 silent, my bones were worn out due to my groaning all the day.

But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing [was] sackcloth. I weakened my soul with fasting, and my prayer {returned to me unanswered}.

My wounds start to stink; they rot because of my foolishness.

When I wept in the fasting of my soul, it became reproaches for me.

My heart is struck like grass and withers. Indeed, I forget to eat my bread.

and [after he] had fasted forty days and forty nights, then he was hungry.

with toil and hardship, often in sleepless nights, with hunger and thirst, often going hungry, in cold and poorly clothed.

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

My knees are weak through fasting; and my flesh faileth of fatness.

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

But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing [was] sackcloth. I weakened my soul with fasting, and my prayer {returned to me unanswered}.

When I wept in the fasting of my soul, it became reproaches for me.

and [after he] had fasted forty days and forty nights, then he was hungry.

with toil and hardship, often in sleepless nights, with hunger and thirst, often going hungry, in cold and poorly clothed.

Therefore strengthen your slackened hands and your weakened knees,

When I kept silent, my bones were worn out due to my groaning all the day.

My wounds start to stink; they rot because of my foolishness.

My heart is struck like grass and withers. Indeed, I forget to eat my bread.

My bones cling to my skin and to my flesh, and I have escaped by the skin of my teeth.

When I wept in the fasting of my soul, it became reproaches for me.
