1. O Lord God of my salvation, I have cried day and night before thee: | |
2. Let my prayer come before thee: incline thine ear unto my cry; | |
3. For my soul is full of troubles: and my life draweth nigh unto the grave. | |
4. I am counted with them that go down into the pit: I am as a man that hath no strength: | |
5. Free among the dead, like the slain that lie in the grave, whom thou rememberest no more: and they are cut off from thy hand. | |
6. Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in darkness, in the deeps. | |
7. Thy wrath lieth hard upon me, and thou hast afflicted me with all thy waves. Selah. | |
8. Thou hast put away mine acquaintance far from me; thou hast made me an abomination unto them: I am shut up, and I cannot come forth. | |
9. Mine eye mourneth by reason of affliction: Lord, I have called daily upon thee, I have stretched out my hands unto thee. | |
10. Wilt thou shew wonders to the dead? shall the dead arise and praise thee? Selah. | |
11. Shall thy lovingkindness be declared in the grave? or thy faithfulness in destruction? | |
12. Shall thy wonders be known in the dark? and thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness? | |
13. But unto thee have I cried, O Lord; and in the morning shall my prayer prevent thee. | |
14. Lord, why castest thou off my soul? why hidest thou thy face from me? | |
15. I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up: while I suffer thy terrors I am distracted. | |
16. Thy fierce wrath goeth over me; thy terrors have cut me off. | |
17. They came round about me daily like water; they compassed me about together. | |
18. Lover and friend hast thou put far from me, and mine acquaintance into darkness. |
