A SONG. A PSALM OF THE SONS OF KORAH. TO THE CHOIRMASTER: ACCORDING TO MAHALATH LEANNOTH. A MASKIL OF HEMAN THE EZRAHITE. O LORD, God of my salvation; I cry out day and night before you. |
2
|
Let my prayer come before you; incline your ear to my cry! |
3
|
For my soul is full of troubles, and my life draws near to Sheol. |
4
|
I am counted among those who go down to the pit; I am a man who has no strength, |
5
|
like one set loose among the dead, like the slain that lie in the grave, like those whom you remember no more, for they are cut off from your hand. |
6
|
You have put me in the depths of the pit, in the regions dark and deep. |
7
|
Your wrath lies heavy upon me, and you overwhelm me with all your waves. Selah |
8
|
You have caused my companions to shun me; you have made me a horror to them. I am shut in so that I cannot escape; |
9
|
my eye grows dim through sorrow. Every day I call upon you, O LORD; I spread out my hands to you. |
10
|
Do you work wonders for the dead? Do the departed rise up to praise you? Selah |
11
|
Is your steadfast love declared in the grave, or your faithfulness in Abaddon? |
12
|
Are your wonders known in the darkness, or your righteousness in the land of forgetfulness? |
13
|
But I, O LORD, cry to you; in the morning my prayer comes before you. |
14
|
O LORD, why do you cast my soul away? Why do you hide your face from me? |
15
|
Afflicted and close to death from my youth up, I suffer your terrors; I am helpless. |
16
|
Your wrath has swept over me; your dreadful assaults destroy me. |
17
|
They surround me like a flood all day long; they close in on me together. |
18
|
You have caused my beloved and my friend to shun me; my companions have become darkness. |
