- 0. [A song, <BR />the psalme of the sonnes of Corach, <BR />to the chiefe musition vpon Mahalath Leannoth, <BR />a wise instruction of Heman the Ezrahite.]
- 1. O God the Lorde of my saluation, I crye day and night before thee:
- 2. let my prayer enter into thy presence, encline thyne eare vnto my crying.
- 3. For my soule is full of miserie: and my life toucheth the graue.
- 4. I am counted as one of them that go downe vnto the pit: and I am nowe become a man that hath no strength.
- 5. I am free among the dead: like such as beyng kylled lye in a graue, whom thou remembrest no more, and are cut away from thy hande.
- 6. Thou hast layde me in the lowest pit: in darknes and in deepenes.
- 7. Thyne indignation sore presseth me: and thou hast vexed me with all thy stormes. Selah.
- 8. Thou hast put away myne acquaintaunce farre from me, and made me to be abhorred of them: I am shut vp, I can not get foorth.
- 9. My sight fayleth through my affliction O God: I haue called dayly vpon thee, I haue stretched out mine handes vnto thee.
- 10. Wylt thou worke a miracle amongst the dead? or shal the dead rise vp againe [and] acknowledge thee? Selah.
- 11. Shall thy louing kindnes be talked of in the graue? or thy faythfulnes in destruction?
- 12. Shall thy wonderous workes be knowen in the darke? and thy righteousnes in the lande of forgetfulnes?
- 13. But vnto thee do I crye O God: and my prayer commeth early in the morning before thee.
- 14. O God, why abhorrest thou my soule: and [why] hidest thou thy face from me?
- 15. I am in miserie, I labour euen from my youth with the panges of death: I haue suffered thy terrours, [and] I am styll in doubt.
- 16. Thyne indignation hath gone ouer me: and thy terrours haue vndone me.
- 17. They came rounde about me dayly lyke water: and compassed me altogether on euery syde.
- 18. Thou hast put a way farre from me my frende and neighbour: [thou hast hid] mine acquaintaunce out of sight.
