Psalms 109:23

“I fade away like an evening shadow. I am shaken off like a locust.”

Verse in context — Psalms 109

But deal with me, Yahweh the Lord, for your name's sake, because your loving kindness is good, deliver me;

for I am poor and needy. My heart is wounded within me.

I fade away like an evening shadow. I am shaken off like a locust.

My knees are weak through fasting. My body is thin and lacks fat.

I have also become a reproach to them. When they see me, they shake their head.
