I am

I am wearied with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I dissolve my couch with my tears.

{To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David.} How long, Jehovah, wilt thou forget me for ever? how long wilt thou hide thy face from me?

My God, I cry by day, and thou answerest not; and by night, and there is no rest for me:

Who in the days of his flesh, having offered up both supplications and entreaties to him who was able to save him out of death, with strong crying and tears; (and having been heard because of his piety;)

My throat

Yea, they gave me gall for my food, and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.

My strength is dried up like a potsherd, and my tongue cleaveth to my palate; and thou hast laid me in the dust of death.

After this, Jesus, knowing that all things were now finished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, says, I thirst.

Mine

Mine eyes fail for thy word, saying, When wilt thou comfort me?

Thy sons and thy daughters shall be given unto another people, and thine eyes shall look, and languish for them all the day long; and there shall be no power in thy hand to help it.

But the eyes of the wicked shall fail, and all refuge shall vanish from them, and their hope shall be the breathing out of life.

My face is red with weeping, and on my eyelids is the shadow of death;

Like a swallow or a crane, so did I chatter; I mourned as a dove; mine eyes failed with looking upward: Lord, I am oppressed; undertake for me.

Mine eyes are consumed with tears, my bowels are troubled; my liver is poured upon the earth, because of the ruin of the daughter of my people; because infant and suckling swoon in the streets of the city.

I wait

Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee.

And now, what wait I for, Lord? my hope is in thee.
