5. Because of the anxiety that makes me groan,my bones protrude from my skin.
6. I am like an owl in the wilderness;I am like a screech owl among the ruins.
7. I stay awake;I am like a solitary bird on a roof.
8. All day long my enemies taunt me;those who mock me use my name in their curses.
9. For I eat ashes as if they were bread,and mix my drink with my tears,
10. because of your anger and raging fury.Indeed, you pick me up and throw me away.
11. My days are coming to an end,and I am withered like grass.
12. But you, O Lord, rule forever,and your reputation endures.
