11 I said: “I will not see Adonai,
    Adonai, in the land of the living.
I will look on humanity no longer
    among the inhabitants of the world.
12 Like a shepherd’s tent,
my dwelling is pulled up and carried away from me.
Like a weaver I rolled up my life.
He cuts me off from the loom.
From day until night You make my end.
13 I stilled my soul till morning.
Like a lion, He will break all my bones.
From day till night You make my end.

    and he has cut me off from the loom;(F)
    day and night(G) you made an end of me.

    but like a lion he broke(I) all my bones;(J)
    day and night(K) you made an end of me.
