Psalms 44:25

For our soul is bowed down to the dust: our belly cleaveth unto the earth.

For our soul {H5315} is bowed down {H7743}{H8804)} to the dust {H6083}: our belly {H990} cleaveth {H1692}{H8804)} unto the earth {H776}.

For we are lying flat in the dust, our bodies cling to the ground.

For our soul has sunk to the dust; our bodies cling to the earth.

For our soul is bowed down to the dust: Our body cleaveth unto the earth.
