|
|
\q I cry out day and night before you.
|

|
|

|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 3 For I am filled with troubles,
|
|
\q and my life has reached sheol.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 4 People treat me like those who go down into the pit;
|
|
\q I am a man with no strength.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 5 I am abandoned among the dead;
|
|
\q I am like the dead who lie in the grave,
|
|
\q about whom you care no more
|
|
\q because they are cut off from your power.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 6 You place me in the lowest part of the pit,
|
|
\q in the dark and deep places.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 7 Your wrath lies heavy on me,
|
|
\q and all your waves crash over me.

|
\q
|
|
\v 8 Because of you, my acquaintances avoid me.
|
|
\q You have made me a shocking sight to them.
|
|
\q I am hemmed in and I cannot escape.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 9 My eyes grow weary from trouble;
|
|
\q All day long I call out to you, Yahweh;
|
|
\q I spread out my hands to you.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 10 Will you do wonders for the dead?
|
|
\q Will those who have died rise and praise you?
|
|

|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 11 Will your covenant faithfulness be proclaimed in the grave,
|
|
\q your loyalty in the place of the dead?
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 12 Will your wonderful deeds be known in the darkness,
|
|
\q or your righteousness in the place of forgetfulness?
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 13 But I cry to you, Yahweh;
|
|
\q in the morning my prayer comes before you.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 14 Yahweh, why do you reject me?
|
|
\q Why do you hide your face from me?
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 15 I have always been afflicted and on the verge of death since my youth.
|
|
\q I have suffered from your terrors; I can do nothing.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 16 Your angry actions have passed over me,
|
|
\q and your terrifying deeds have annihilated me.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 17 They surround me like water all the day long;
|
|
\q they have all encircled me.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 18 You have removed every friend and acquaintance from me.
|
|
\q My only acquaintance is the darkness.
