Sighs have become my food every day. Groans pour out of me like water.

我未曾吃饭就发出叹息；我唉哼的声音涌出如水。

我吃饭前就发出叹息，我的唉哼涌出如水。

我吃饭前就发出叹息，我的唉哼涌出如水。

我以叹息为食，呻吟如水涌流。

我以叹息代替食物，我唉哼的声音如水涌出。

我未曾吃飯就發出歎息；我唉哼的聲音湧出如水。

我吃飯前就發出嘆息，我的唉哼湧出如水。

我吃飯前就發出嘆息，我的唉哼湧出如水。

我以歎息為食，呻吟如水湧流。

我以歎息代替食物，我唉哼的聲音如水湧出。

我的歎息代替我的食物；我的哀吼如水瀉出。

我未食而先歎、呻吟之聲、有如水湧、

我未食而先嘆、聲等波濤之洶湧、

我未食而先歎、我號呼之聲有如水流、

For sighing has become my daily food; my groans pour out like water.

For my sighing comes instead of my bread, and my groanings are poured out like water.

I cannot eat for sighing; my groans pour out like water.

I sigh when food is put before me, and my groans pour out like water.

For my groaning comes at the sight of my food, And my cries pour out like water.

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

For my sighing cometh before I eat, And my groanings are poured out like water.

I sigh when food is put before me, and my groans pour out like water.

For my sighing cometh before I eat, and my roarings are poured out like the waters.

For my sighing comes in place of my food, and my groanings flow forth like water.

For my sighing comes before I eat. My groanings are poured out like water.

I eat ashes as my food. My tears fall into what I’m drinking.

I am weak and feel as if I’ve been broken in pieces. I groan because of the great pain in my heart.

My tears have been my food day and night. All day long people say to me,“ Where is your God?”When I remember what has happened, I tell God all my troubles. I remember how I used to walk to the house of God. The Mighty One guarded my steps. We shouted with joy and praised God as we went along with the joyful crowd.

You have given us tears as our food. You have made us drink tears by the bowlful.

I refuse to touch that kind of food. It makes me sick.

All of us growl like hungry bears. We sound like doves as we mourn. We want the Lord to do what is fair and save us. But he doesn’t do it. We long for him to set us free. But the time for that seems far away.

I call out and cry for help. But he won’t listen to me when I pray.

Won’t you ever look away from me? Won’t you leave me alone even for one second?

My God, my God, why have you deserted me? Why do you seem so far away when I need you to save me? Why do you seem so far away that you can’t hear my groans?My God, I cry out in the daytime. But you don’t answer. I cry out at night. But you don’t let me sleep.

They might feel so bad they can’t eat anything. They might even hate the finest food.

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