15"I have sewed sackcloth over my skin and buried my brow in the dust.


In Context

12 All was well with me, but he shattered me; he seized me by the neck and crushed me. He has made me his target;

13 his archers surround me. Without pity, he pierces my kidneys and spills my gall on the ground.

14 Again and again he bursts upon me; he rushes at me like a warrior.

15 "I have sewed sackcloth over my skin and buried my brow in the dust.

16 My face is red with weeping, deep shadows ring my eyes;

17 yet my hands have been free of violence and my prayer is pure.
