12 Like a shepherd’s tent,
    my home has been pulled down and taken from me.
I am like the cloth a weaver rolls up and cuts from the loom.
    ·In one day [L From day to night] you brought me to this end.
13 ·All night I cried loudly [or I waited patiently till morning].
    Like a lion, he ·crushed [breaks] all my bones.
    ·In one day [L From day to night] you brought me to this end.
14 I ·cried [twitter; chatter] like a ·bird [L swallow or a crane]
    and moaned like a dove.
My eyes ·became tired as I looked [grew weary from looking] to the ·heavens [heights].
    Lord, I ·have troubles [am oppressed]. ·Please help me [Be my security].”
