Psalm 102:2-4
EasyEnglish Bible
2 Now that I am in trouble,
please do not turn away from me.
Listen carefully to me.
Now that I am calling to you for help,
please answer me quickly.
3 My life is quickly disappearing,
like smoke from a fire.
My bones hurt very much,
as if they were burning in an oven.[a]
4 I am very weak and upset,
like dry grass that will soon die.
I even forget to eat my food.

So that I forget to eat my bread.
