| [2]O 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, God of my salvation, what time I cry in the night before Thee, |
[No book] |
| [3]Let my prayer come before Thee, incline Thine ear unto my cry. |
[No book] |
| [4]For my soul is sated with troubles, and my life draweth nigh unto the grave. |
[No book] |
| [5]I am counted with them that go down into the pit; I am become as a man that hath no help; |
[No book] |
| [6]Set apart among the dead, like the slain that lie in the grave, whom rememberest no more; and they are cut off from Thy hand. |
[No book] |
| [7]Thou hast laid me in the nether-most pit, in dark places, in the deeps. |
[No book] |
| [8]Thy wrath lieth hard upon me, and all Thy waves Thou pressest down. Selah |
[No book] |
| [9]Thou hast put mine acquaintance far from me; Thou hast made me an abomination unto them; I am shut up, and I cannot come forth. |
[No book] |
| [10]Mine eye languisheth by reason of affliction; I have called upon Thee, O 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, every day, I have spread forth my hands unto Thee. |
[No book] |
| [11]Wilt Thou work wonders for the dead? Or shall the shades arise and give Thee thanks? Selah |
[No book] |
| [12]Shall Thy mercy be declared in the grave? or Thy faithfulness in destruction? |
[No book] |
| [13]Shall Thy wonders be known in the dark? and Thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness? |
[No book] |
| [14]But as for me, unto Thee, O 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, do I cry, and in the morning doth my prayer come to meet Thee. |
[No book] |
| [15]𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, why castest Thou off my soul? Why hidest Thou Thy face from me? |
[No book] |
| [16]I am afflicted and at the point of death from my youth up; I have borne Thy terrors, I am distracted. |
[No book] |
| [17]Thy fierce wrath is gone over me; Thy terrors have cut me off. |
[No book] |
| [18]They came round about me like water all the day; they compassed me about together. |
[No book] |
| [19]Friend and companion hast Thou put far from me, and mine acquaintance into darkness. |
