When I kept silent, my bones grew old Through my groaning all the day long.

我闭口不认罪的时候，因终日唉哼而骨头枯干。

我闭口不认罪的时候，因终日呻吟而骨头枯干。

我闭口不认罪的时候，因终日呻吟而骨头枯干。

我默然不语、拒绝认罪的时候，就因整日哀叹而身心疲惫。

我闭口不认罪的时候，就整天唉哼，以致骨头衰残。

我保持沉默、不认罪的时候，就因终日哀号而骨头衰朽；

我閉口不認罪的時候，因終日唉哼而骨頭枯乾。

我閉口不認罪的時候，因終日呻吟而骨頭枯乾。

我閉口不認罪的時候，因終日呻吟而骨頭枯乾。

我默然不語、拒絕認罪的時候，就因整日哀歎而身心疲憊。

我閉口不認罪的時候，就整天唉哼，以致骨頭衰殘。

我閉口不認罪時，我的骨頭都因終日哀哼而磨損。

我保持沉默、不認罪的時候，就因終日哀號而骨頭衰朽；

我緘默時、終日欷歔、我骨衰殘兮、

我不言己罪、終日欷歔、筋骨漸衰、

我緘默未認己罪、終日哀號、筋骨衰殘、

我昔有罪。不肯自招。呻吟不輟。生趣日消。

When I kept silent, my bones wasted away through my groaning all day long.

When I kept silent about my sin, my body became weak because I groaned all day long.

For when I kept silent, my bones wasted away through my groaning all day long.

When I refused to confess my sin, my body wasted away, and I groaned all day long.

When I kept silent, my bones became brittle from my groaning all day long.

When I kept silent about my sin, my body wasted away Through my groaning all day long.

When I kept silence, my bones wasted away Through my groaning all the day long.

When I kept silent, my bones became brittle from my groaning all day long.

When I kept silence, my bones waxed old through my roaring all the day long.

I am feeble and severely broken; I groan because of the turmoil of my heart.

My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me? Why are You so far from helping Me, And from the words of My groaning?

There is no soundness in my flesh Because of Your anger, Nor any health in my bones Because of my sin.

They did not cry out to Me with their heart When they wailed upon their beds.“ They assemble together for grain and new wine, They rebel against Me;

My skin grows black and falls from me; My bones burn with fever.

Even when I cry and shout, He shuts out my prayer.

He who covers his sins will not prosper, But whoever confesses and forsakes them will have mercy.

Make me hear joy and gladness, That the bones You have broken may rejoice.

Your sons have fainted, They lie at the head of all the streets, Like an antelope in a net; They are full of the fury of the Lord, The rebuke of your God.

Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am in trouble; My eye wastes away with grief, Yes, my soul and my body!For my life is spent with grief, And my years with sighing; My strength fails because of my iniquity, And my bones waste away.

For my sighing comes before I eat, And my groanings pour out like water.

My bones are pierced in me at night, And my gnawing pains take no rest.

Then David went and took the bones of Saul, and the bones of Jonathan his son, from the men of Jabesh Gilead who had stolen them from the street of Beth Shan, where the Philistines had hung them up, after the Philistines had struck down Saul in Gilboa.So he brought up the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from there; and they gathered the bones of those who had been hanged.They buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son in the country of Benjamin in Zelah, in the tomb of Kish his father. So they performed all that the king commanded. And after that God heeded the prayer for the land.

Then they took their bones and buried them under the tamarisk tree at Jabesh, and fasted seven days.

Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am weak; O Lord, heal me, for my bones are troubled.

Then he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.And he would gladly have filled his stomach with the pods that the swine ate, and no one gave him anything.

And they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden.Then the Lord God called to Adam and said to him,“ Where are you?”So he said,“ I heard Your voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; and I hid myself.”And He said,“ Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree of which I commanded you that you should not eat?”Then the man said,“ The woman whom You gave to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate.”And the Lord God said to the woman,“ What is this you have done?” The woman said,“ The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”So the Lord God said to the serpent:“ Because you have done this, You are cursed more than all cattle, And more than every beast of the field; On your belly you shall go, And you shall eat dust All the days of your life.And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed and her Seed; He shall bruise your head, And you shall bruise His heel.”To the woman He said:“ I will greatly multiply your sorrow and your conception; In pain you shall bring forth children; Your desire shall be for your husband, And he shall rule over you.”Then to Adam He said,“ Because you have heeded the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree of which I commanded you, saying,‘ You shall not eat of it’:“ Cursed is the ground for your sake; In toil you shall eat of it All the days of your life.Both thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for you, And you shall eat the herb of the field.In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread Till you return to the ground, For out of it you were taken; For dust you are, And to dust you shall return.”

“ I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning himself:‘ You have chastised me, and I was chastised, Like an untrained bull; Restore me, and I will return, For You are the Lord my God.Surely, after my turning, I repented; And after I was instructed, I struck myself on the thigh; I was ashamed, yes, even humiliated, Because I bore the reproach of my youth.’

He has aged my flesh and my skin, And broken my bones.

Judah has gone into captivity, Under affliction and hard servitude; She dwells among the nations, She finds no rest; All her persecutors overtake her in dire straits.

We all growl like bears, And moan sadly like doves; We look for justice, but there is none; For salvation, but it is far from us.

And when her mourning was over, David sent and brought her to his house, and she became his wife and bore him a son. But the thing that David had done displeased the Lord.Then the Lord sent Nathan to David. And he came to him, and said to him:“ There were two men in one city, one rich and the other poor.The rich man had exceedingly many flocks and herds.But the poor man had nothing, except one little ewe lamb which he had bought and nourished; and it grew up together with him and with his children. It ate of his own food and drank from his own cup and lay in his bosom; and it was like a daughter to him.And a traveler came to the rich man, who refused to take from his own flock and from his own herd to prepare one for the wayfaring man who had come to him; but he took the poor man’s lamb and prepared it for the man who had come to him.”So David’s anger was greatly aroused against the man, and he said to Nathan,“ As the Lord lives, the man who has done this shall surely die!And he shall restore fourfold for the lamb, because he did this thing and because he had no pity.”Then Nathan said to David,“ You are the man! Thus says the Lord God of Israel:‘ I anointed you king over Israel, and I delivered you from the hand of Saul.I gave you your master’s house and your master’s wives into your keeping, and gave you the house of Israel and Judah. And if that had been too little, I also would have given you much more!Why have you despised the commandment of the Lord, to do evil in His sight? You have killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword; you have taken his wife to be your wife, and have killed him with the sword of the people of Ammon.Now therefore, the sword shall never depart from your house, because you have despised Me, and have taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be your wife.’Thus says the Lord:‘ Behold, I will raise up adversity against you from your own house; and I will take your wives before your eyes and give them to your neighbor, and he shall lie with your wives in the sight of this sun.For you did it secretly, but I will do this thing before all Israel, before the sun.’”

For my days are consumed like smoke, And my bones are burned like a hearth.My heart is stricken and withered like grass, So that I forget to eat my bread.Because of the sound of my groaning My bones cling to my skin.

For the iniquity of his covetousness I was angry and struck him; I hid and was angry, And he went on backsliding in the way of his heart.
