In context
5I am blighted like grass, and my heart is dried up; For I have forgotten to eat my bread.
6By reason of the voice of my groaning, My bone has cloven to my flesh.
— Psalms 101:7 —
8I have become like an owl in a ruined house. I have watched, and am become As a sparrow dwelling alone on a roof.
9All the day long mine enemies have reproached me; And they that praised me have sworn against me.
