Psalms 102:5-9 Modern English Version (MEV)

5. Because of the sound of my groaningmy bones cling to my skin.

6. I am like an owl of the wilderness,like a screech owl of the desert.

7. I stay awake and amas a sparrow alone upon the housetop.

8. My enemies reproach me all the day,and those who taunt me curse my name.

9. For I have eaten ashes like breadand mixed my drink with weeping,
