NETBible

I was consumed by scorching heat 1  during the day and by piercing cold 2  at night, and I went without sleep. 3 

NET Notes

1 tn Or “by drought.”

2 tn Heb “frost, ice,” though when contrasted with the חֹרֶב (khorev, “drought, parching heat”) of the day, “piercing cold” is more appropriate as a contrast.

3 tn Heb “and my sleep fled from my eyes.”
