Let the stars of its dawn be dark; let it hope for light but there be none, and let it not see [the] eyelids of dawn

My face is red because of weeping, and deep shadows [are] on my eyelids,

Yahweh [is] in his holy temple; Yahweh [is] in the heavens [on] his throne. His eyelids see; they test [the] children of humankind.

You hold [open] my eyelids. I am troubled and cannot speak.

I will give no sleep to my eyes, [no] slumber to my eyelids,

Do not give sleep to your eyes, or slumber to your eyelids.

[There is] a generation--how lofty [are] their eyes! And their eyelids they will lift.

And let them hasten, and let them lift up wailing over us, so that our eyes may melt [with] tears, and our eyelids may flow [with] water.
