- 1. ¶ O LORD God of my salvation, I have cried day and night before thee;
- 2. Let my prayer come before thee; incline thine ear unto my supplication;
- 3. For my soul is full of troubles and my life draws near to Sheol.
- 4. I am counted with them that go down into the pit; I am like a man who has no strength;
- 5. Like a nobleman abandoned among the dead, like the slain that lie down in the grave, whom thou rememberest no more; they are lost to thee.
- 6. Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in darkness, in the shadow of death.
- 7. Thy wrath rests hard upon me, and thou hast afflicted me with all thy waves.
- 8. Thou hast put away mine acquaintances far from me; thou hast made me an abomination to them; I am shut up and I cannot come forth.
- 9. Mine eyes are weakened from weeping; LORD, I have called daily upon thee; I have stretched out my hands to thee.
- 10. ¶ Behold thou wilt show wonders to the dead; the mighty ones shall rise and praise thee.
- 11. They that are in the graves shall declare thy lovingkindness, and thy faithfulness in destruction.
- 12. Thy wonders shall be known in the dark, and thy righteousness in the land that has been forsaken.
- 13. But to thee have I cried, O LORD; and in the morning shall my prayer come early before thee.
- 14. O LORD, forsake not my soul, and turn not thy face from me.
- 15. I am poor and afflicted from my youth; I have been proud, but now I am humbled and crushed.
- 16. Thy fierce wrath goes over me; thy terrors have silenced me.
- 17. They came round about me daily like water; they set themselves in array against me.
- 18. Friends and neighbors thou hast put far from me, and mine acquaintances thou hast kept away from me.
