16 And now my soul is poured out [a]within me;
Days of affliction have taken hold upon me.
17 In the night season my bones are [b]pierced [c]in me,
And [d]the pains that gnaw me take no rest.

It bindeth me about as the collar of my coat.
19 He hath cast me into the mire,
And I am become like dust and ashes.
