Adam Clarke
My breath is corrupt - Rather, My spirit is oppressed, ruchi chubbalah : My days are extinct, and the sepulchral cells are ready for me - Parkhurst. There is probably a reference here to cemeteries, where were several niches, in Each of which a corpse was deposited. See on Job 17:16 (note). For chubbalah , corrupted or oppressed, some MSS. have chalah , is made weak; and one has is worn down, consumed: this is agreeable to the Vulgate, Spiritus meus attenuebatur; "My spirit is exhausted."
