16 “And now (A)my soul is poured out [a]within me;
Days of misery have seized me.
17 At night it pierces (B)my bones [b]within me,
And my gnawing pains do not rest.
18 By a great force my garment is (C)distorted;
It ties me up like the collar of my coat.
19 He has thrown me into the (D)mire,
And I have become like dust and ashes.
