O Jehovah,
God of my salvation, Daily
I have cried ,
nightly
before Thee ,
O lord
God of my salvation, I have cried day
and
night
before thee :
My prayer cometh
in
before Thee ,
Incline Thine ear to
my loud
cry ,
Let
my prayer come
before thee :
incline thine ear unto
my cry ;
For my soul hath
been
full of evils,
And my life hath
come
to
Sheol
.
For my soul is
full of troubles:
and my life draweth
nigh
unto
the
grave
.
I have
been
reckoned
with those
going
down `to'
the pit ,
I have
been
as a man without
strength .
I am
counted
with them
that
go
down into
the pit :
I am
as a man that
hath
no
strength :
Among the dead --
free
, As
pierced
ones
lying
in the grave, Whom Thou hast
not
remembered
any
more ,
Yea,
they by
Thy
hand
have
been
cut off.
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
.
Thou hast put
me in the lowest pit, In dark
places
, in depths
.
Thou hast laid
me in the lowest pit, in darkness
, in the
deeps
.
Upon me hath
Thy
fury
lain
, And `with'
all
Thy
breakers
Thou hast afflicted. Selah.
Thy
wrath
lieth
hard
upon me, and thou hast afflicted me
with
all
thy
waves
. Selah.
Thou hast put mine acquaintance far from me ,
Thou hast made me an abomination to
them ,
Shut up --
I go
not
forth.
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.
Mine eye hath
grieved
because
of affliction, I called Thee, O
Jehovah,
all
the
day,
I have spread
out unto
Thee
my hands.
Mine eye mourneth
by
reason
of affliction :
LORD
, I have
called daily
upon
thee, I have stretched
out my hands unto
thee
.
To the dead dost
Thou
do
wonders
? Do
Rephaim
rise?
do
they
thank
Thee? Selah.
Wilt
thou
shew
wonders
to the dead? shall
the
dead
arise
and
praise
thee? Selah.
Is
Thy kindness
recounted
in the grave? Thy faithfulness in destruction?
Shall
thy lovingkindness
be
declared
in the grave? or
thy faithfulness in destruction?
Are
Thy wonders known in the darkness
? And Thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?
Shall
thy wonders be
known in the dark
? and thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?
And
I,
unto Thee ,
O
Jehovah,
I
have cried, And in the morning doth
my prayer come
before
Thee.
But
unto thee have I
cried, O
LORD;
and in the morning shall
my prayer prevent
thee.
Why,
O
Jehovah
, castest Thou off my soul? Thou
hidest Thy face from me .
LORD
, why
castest thou off my soul? why
hidest thou
thy face from me ?
I `
am '
afflicted ,
and expiring
from youth ,
I have
borne
Thy terrors --
I pine
away
.
I am afflicted and ready
to
die
from my
youth up:
while
I suffer
thy terrors I am
distracted
.
Over
me
hath
Thy wrath passed,
Thy terrors have cut me off ,
Thy fierce
wrath goeth
over
me;
thy terrors have cut me off .
They have
surrounded
me as
waters
all
the
day,
They have
gone
round
against
me together ,
They came
round
about
me daily
like
water;
they compassed
me about
together .
Thou
hast put far from me lover
and
friend
, Mine acquaintance `is'
the
place
of
darkness !
Lover
and
friend
hast thou
put far from me, and
mine acquaintance into
darkness .
