24. my sighing cometh before I eat--that is, prevents my eating
[UMBREIT]; or, conscious that the effort to eat
brought on the disease, Job must sigh before eating [ROSENMULLER]; or, sighing takes the place of good
(Ps 42:3)
[GOOD]. But the first explanation accords best
with the text.
my roarings are poured out like the waters--an image from the rushing
sound of water streaming.
