9. For I have eaten ashes like bread, And mingled my drink with weeping,
10. Because of thine indignation and thy wrath: For thou hast taken me up, and cast me away.
11. My days are like a shadow that declineth; And I am withered like grass.
12. But thou, O Jehovah, wilt abide for ever; And thy memorial name unto all generations.
13. Thou wilt arise, and have mercy upon Zion; For it is time to have pity upon her, Yea, the set time is come.
