If they are TIGHT, then you have a dead battery.

If it starts with a quick jump, then either it's the battery/post connection, OR the battery, because you are applying the jump cables to the terminals, not the posts.

Voltage is irrelevant if the amps won't come out to play.....

Get a new battery. Optima Batteries do not survive complete drain....

then either disconnect it or buy a trickle charger next time you let it sit for more than a week or so
