Lamentations 3:4
Compare all
2 He has led me and made me walk
In darkness and not in light.
3 Surely He has turned His hand against me
Time and time again throughout the day.
4 He has aged amy flesh and my skin,
And bbroken my bones. 
5 He has besieged me
And surrounded me with bitterness and1 woe. 
6 aHe has set me in dark places
Like the dead of long ago. 
7 aHe has hedged me in so that I cannot get out;
He has made my chain heavy. 
8 Even awhen I cry and shout,
He shuts out my prayer.

Lamentations 3:4

Made old - Or, wasted: his strength slowly wasted as he pined away in sorrow.

He hath broken my bones - This clause completes the representation of the sufferer' s physical agonies. Here the idea is that of acute pain.
