Job 33:19-21

Revised Standard Version

¹⁹“Man is also chastened with pain upon his bed,
    and with continual strife in his bones;
²⁰so that his life loathes bread,
    and his appetite dainty food.
²¹His flesh is so wasted away that it cannot be seen;
    and his bones which were not seen stick out.
