10 My life is consumed with sadness;
    my years are consumed with groaning.
Strength fails me because of my suffering;[a]
    my bones dry up.
11 I’m a joke to all my enemies,
    still worse to my neighbors.

12 I am forgotten, like I’m dead,
    completely out of mind;
    I am like a piece of pottery, destroyed.
