King James Version
"I watch, and am as a sparrow alone upon the house top."
— Psalms 102:7, King James Version
“I watch, and am become like a sparrow That is alone upon the house-top. ”
“I watch, and have become like a sparrow that is alone on the housetop.”
“I stay awake; I am like a solitary bird on a roof.”
“He hath made his ways known to Moses: his wills to the children of Israel.”
“I keep watch like a bird by itself on the house-top.”
“I watch, and am as a sparrow alone upon the house top.”
My heart is smitten, and withered like grass; so that I forget to eat my bread.
By reason of the voice of my groaning my bones cleave to my skin.
I am like a pelican of the wilderness: I am like an owl of the desert.
I watch, and am as a sparrow alone upon the house top.
Mine enemies reproach me all the day; and they that are mad against me are sworn against me.
For I have eaten ashes like bread, and mingled my drink with weeping,
Because of thine indignation and thy wrath: for thou hast lifted me up, and cast me down.
