Your hands fashioned and made me,
    and now you turn and destroy me.[a](A)
Remember that you fashioned me like clay,
    and will you turn me to dust again?(B)
10 Did you not pour me out like milk
    and curdle me like cheese?(C)
11 You clothed me with skin and flesh
    and knit me together with bones and sinews.
12 You have granted me life and steadfast love,
    and your care has preserved my spirit.(D)

    and formed me in the womb.[a]
11 You clothed me with skin and flesh,
    and you knit my bones and sinews together.
12 You gave me life and showed me your unfailing love.
    My life was preserved by your care.
