Psalms 109:23

109:23 I am fading away like a shadow at the end of the day; ¹ 

I am shaken off like a locust.

Isaiah 54:11

54:11 “O afflicted one, driven away, ²  and unconsoled!

Look, I am about to set your stones in antimony

and I lay your foundation with lapis-lazuli.

[109:23]  ¹ tn Heb “like a shadow when it is extended I go.” He is like a late afternoon shadow made by the descending sun that will soon be swallowed up by complete darkness. See Ps 102:11.

[54:11]  ² tn Or, more literally, “windblown, storm tossed.”
