13. They open their mouths at melike a lion ripping and roaring!
14. I’m poured out like water.All my bones have fallen apart.My heart is like wax;it melts inside me.
15. My strength is dried uplike a piece of broken pottery.My tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth;you’ve set me down in the dirt of death.
16. Dogs surround me;a pack of evil people circle me like a lion—oh, my poor hands and feet!
17. I can count all my bones!Meanwhile, they just stare at me, watching me.
18. They divvy up my garments among themselves;they cast lots for my clothes.
19. But you, Lord! Don’t be far away!You are my strength!Come quick and help me!
