Psalm 102:5
By reason of the voice of my groaning my bones cleave to my skin.
By reason of the voice of my groaning,.... Under the burden of sin, and pressure of afflictions:
my bones cleave to my skin; was quite emaciated, reduced to a skeleton, became nothing but skin and bone {e}; which sometimes is occasioned, as by outward afflictions, so by soul troubles: or "to my flesh" {f}; flesh is put for skin; see Job 19:20.
