- 1. I am the man that hath seen affliction by the rod of his wrath.
- 2. He hath led me and caused me to walk in darkness, and not in light.
- 3. Surely against me he turneth his hand again and again all the day.
- 4. My flesh and my skin hath he made old; he hath broken my bones.
- 5. He hath builded against me, and compassed me with gall and travail.
- 6. He hath made me to dwell in dark places, as those that have been long dead.
- 7. He hath walled me about, that I cannot go forth; he hath made my chain heavy.
- 8. Yea, when I cry, and call for help, he shutteth out my prayer.
- 9. He hath walled up my ways with hewn stone; he hath made my paths crooked.
- 10. He is unto me as a bear lying in wait, as a lion in secret places.
- 11. He hath turned aside my ways, and pulled me in pieces; he hath made me desolate.
- 12. He hath bent his bow, and set me as a mark for the arrow.
- 13. He hath caused the shafts of his quiver to enter into my reins.
- 14. I am become a derision to all my people, and their song all the day.
- 15. He hath filled me with bitterness, he hath sated me with wormwood.
- 16. He hath also broken my teeth with gravel stones; he hath covered me with ashes.
- 17. And thou hast removed my soul far off from peace; I forgat prosperity.
- 18. And I said, My strength is perished, and mine expectation from Jehovah.
- 19. Remember mine affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the gall.
- 20. My soul hath them still in remembrance, and is bowed down within me.
- 21. This I recall to my mind; therefore have I hope.
- 22. [It is of] Jehovah’s lovingkindnesses that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.
- 23. They are new every morning; great is thy faithfulness.
- 24. Jehovah is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.
- 25. Jehovah is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him.
- 26. It is good that a man should hope and quietly wait for the salvation of Jehovah.
- 27. It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth.
- 28. Let him sit alone and keep silence, because he hath laid it upon him.
- 29. Let him put his mouth in the dust, if so be there may be hope.
- 30. Let him give his cheek to him that smiteth him; let him be filled full with reproach.
- 31. For the Lord will not cast off for ever.
- 32. For though he cause grief, yet will he have compassion according to the multitude of his lovingkindnesses.
- 33. For he doth not afflict willingly, nor grieve the children of men.
- 34. To crush under foot all the prisoners of the earth,
- 35. To turn aside the right of a man before the face of the Most High,
- 36. To subvert a man in his cause, the Lord approveth not.
- 37. Who is he that saith, and it cometh to pass, when the Lord commandeth it not?
- 38. Out of the mouth of the Most High cometh there not evil and good?
- 39. Wherefore doth a living man complain, a man for the punishment of his sins?
- 40. Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to Jehovah.
- 41. Let us lift up our heart with our hands unto God in the heavens.
- 42. We have transgressed and have rebelled; thou hast not pardoned.
- 43. Thou hast covered with anger and pursued us; thou hast slain, thou hast not pitied.
- 44. Thou hast covered thyself with a cloud, so that no prayer can pass through.
- 45. Thou hast made us an off-scouring and refuse in the midst of the peoples.
- 46. All our enemies have opened their mouth wide against us.
- 47. Fear and the pit are come upon us, devastation and destruction.
- 48. Mine eye runneth down with streams of water, for the destruction of the daughter of my people.
- 49. Mine eye poureth down, and ceaseth not, without any intermission,
- 50. Till Jehovah look down, and behold from heaven.
- 51. Mine eye affecteth my soul, because of all the daughters of my city.
- 52. They have chased me sore like a bird, they that are mine enemies without cause.
- 53. They have cut off my life in the dungeon, and have cast a stone upon me.
- 54. Waters flowed over my head; I said, I am cut off.
- 55. I called upon thy name, O Jehovah, out of the lowest dungeon.
- 56. Thou heardest my voice; hide not thine ear at my breathing, at my cry.
- 57. Thou drewest near in the day that I called upon thee; thou saidst, Fear not.
- 58. O Lord, thou hast pleaded the causes of my soul; thou hast redeemed my life.
- 59. O Jehovah, thou hast seen my wrong; judge thou my cause.
- 60. Thou hast seen all their vengeance and all their devices against me.
- 61. Thou hast heard their reproach, O Jehovah, and all their devices against me,
- 62. The lips of those that rose up against me, and their device against me all the day.
- 63. Behold thou their sitting down, and their rising up; I am their song.
- 64. Thou wilt render unto them a recompense, O Jehovah, according to the work of their hands.
- 65. Thou wilt give them hardness of heart, thy curse unto them.
- 66. Thou wilt pursue them in anger, and destroy them from under the heavens of Jehovah.
