14 Like (A)a swallow or a crane I chirp;
    (B)I moan like a dove.
(C)My eyes are weary with looking upward.
    O Lord, I am oppressed; (D)be my pledge of safety!
15 What shall I say? For he has spoken to me,
    and he himself has done it.
(E)I walk slowly all my years
    because of the bitterness of my soul.

16 (F)O Lord, by these things men live,
    and in all these is the life of my spirit.
    Oh restore me to health and make me live!
