'Fastings' in the Bible

And she was a widow of about fourscore and four years, which departed not from the temple, but served God with fastings and prayers night and day.

In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings;

In weariness and painfulness, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.
