If I say, I will forget my complaint, I will leave off my heaviness, and comfort {myself}:

When I lie down, I say, When shall I arise, and the night be gone? and I am full of tossings to and fro unto the dawning of the day. {the night...: Heb. the evening be measured?}

Thou holdest mine eyes waking: I am so troubled that I cannot speak.

If I say, I will forget my complaint, I will leave off my heaviness, and comfort {myself}:

For all his days {are} sorrows, and his travail grief; yea, his heart taketh not rest in the night. This is also vanity.

They change the night into day: the light {is} short because of darkness. {short: Heb. near}

{When} I would comfort myself against sorrow, my heart {is} faint in me. {in: Heb. upon}
