Thou holdest mine eyes waking: I am so troubled that I cannot speak.
Ver. 4. Thou holdest mine eyes waking] Thou holdest the watches of mine eyes, that is, mine eyebrows, saith the Chaldee, so that I can neither sleep nor speak. Job complaineth of the like misery, Job 7:8 See Psalms 38:10
That I cannot speak] Curae leves loquuntur, ingentes stupent.
