Why should I take my flesh in my teeth, and put my life in my hand?

But his flesh on him has pain, and his soul within him mourns.”

My bones stick to my skin and to my flesh. I have escaped by the skin of my teeth.

Why do you persecute me as God, and are not satisfied with my flesh?

After my skin is destroyed, then I will see God in my flesh,

When I remember, I am troubled. Horror takes hold of my flesh.

if the men of my tent have not said, ‘Who can find one who has not been filled with his meat?’

His flesh is so consumed away that it can’t be seen. His bones that were not seen stick out.

His flesh will be fresher than a child’s. He returns to the days of his youth.

all flesh would perish together, and man would turn again to dust.

The flakes of his flesh are joined together. They are firm on him. They can’t be moved.

Therefore my heart is glad, and my tongue rejoices. My body shall also dwell in safety.

When evildoers came at me to eat up my flesh, even my adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell.

There is no soundness in my flesh because of your indignation, neither is there any health in my bones because of my sin.

For my waist is filled with burning. There is no soundness in my flesh.

Will I eat the meat of bulls, or drink the blood of goats?

In God, I praise his word. In God, I put my trust. I will not be afraid. What can flesh do to me?

God, you are my God. I will earnestly seek you. My soul thirsts for you. My flesh longs for you, in a dry and weary land, where there is no water.

You who hear prayer, all men will come to you.

He remembered that they were but flesh, a wind that passes away, and doesn’t come again.

They have given the dead bodies of your servants to be food for the birds of the sky, the flesh of your saints to the animals of the earth.

My soul longs, and even faints for the courts of Yahweh. My heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.

But the bull, and its skin, and its meat, and its dung, he burned with fire outside the camp, as Yahweh commanded Moses.

By reason of the voice of my groaning, my bones stick to my skin.

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

My flesh trembles for fear of you. I am afraid of your judgments.

who gives food to every creature; for his loving kindness endures forever.

My mouth will speak the praise of Yahweh. Let all flesh bless his holy name forever and ever.

For they are life to those who find them, and health to their whole body.

You will groan at your latter end, when your flesh and your body are consumed,

The life of the body is a heart at peace, but envy rots the bones.

Don’t be among ones drinking too much wine, or those who gorge themselves on meat:

I searched in my heart how to cheer my flesh with wine, my heart yet guiding me with wisdom, and how to lay hold of folly, until I might see what it was good for the sons of men that they should do under heaven all the days of their lives.

The fool folds his hands together and ruins himself.

Don’t allow your mouth to lead you into sin. Don’t protest before the messenger that this was a mistake. Why should God be angry at your voice, and destroy the work of your hands?

Therefore remove sorrow from your heart, and put away evil from your flesh; for youth and the dawn of life are vanity.

Furthermore, my son, be admonished: of making many books there is no end; and much study is a weariness of the flesh.

One will devour on the right hand, and be hungry; and he will eat on the left hand, and they will not be satisfied. Everyone will eat the flesh of his own arm:

He will consume the glory of his forest, and of his fruitful field, both soul and body. It will be as when a standard bearer faints.

“It will happen in that day that the glory of Jacob will be made thin, and the fatness of his flesh will become lean.
