Isa 38:13 · Douay-Rheims
“I hoped till morning, as a lion so hath he broken all my bones: from morning even to night thou wilt make an end of me.”
On this verse:
“In that day I was delivered till morning as to a lion, he did so break all my bones—from day even to night was I delivered over; meaning: In the time then of my sickness, I was delivered over to the fever as to a terrible lion that was crushing all my bones, so that, as it raged, I was tortured incessantly from morning till evening and from evening till day-dawn”
