16 “Now my soul is poured out within me.
    Days of affliction have taken hold of me.
17 In the night season my bones are pierced in me,
    and the pains that gnaw me take no rest.

    I have become like dust and ashes.

19 He has thrown me into the mud.
    I’m nothing more than dust and ashes.
