    My wound ·cannot be healed [is severe].

20 My tent is ·ruined [destroyed; desolated],
    and all its ropes are broken.
My children have gone away and left me.
    No one is left to ·put up [stretch out] my tent again
    or to set up ·a shelter for me [L my curtains].

    and don’t ·ask the Lord for advice [L seek the Lord].
So they do not have success,
    and all their flocks are scattered.
