1 A Song 7892 or Psalm 4210 for the sons 1121 of Korah 7141, to the chief Musician 5329 upon Mahalath 4257 Leannoth 6031, Maschil 4905 of Heman 1968 the Ezrahite 250. O LORD 3068 God 430 of my salvation 3444, I have cried 6817 day 3117 and night 3915 before thee:
2 Let my prayer 8605 come 935 before 6440 thee: incline 5186 thine ear 241 unto my cry 7440;
3 For my soul 5315 is full 7646 of troubles 7451: and my life 2416 draweth nigh 5060 unto the grave 7585.
4 I am counted 2803 with them that go down 3381 into the pit 953: I am as a man 1397 that hath no strength 353:
5 Free 2670 among the dead 4191, like the slain 2491 that lie 7901 in the grave 6913, whom thou rememberest 2142 no more: and they are cut off 1504 from thy hand 3027.
6 Thou hast laid 7896 me in the lowest 8482 pit 953, in darkness 4285, in the deeps 4688.
7 Thy wrath 2534 lieth hard 5564 upon me, and thou hast afflicted 6031 me with all thy waves 4867. Selah 5542.
8 Thou hast put away 7368 0 mine acquaintance 3045 far 7368 from me; thou hast made 7896 me an abomination 8441 unto them: I am shut up 3607, and I cannot come forth 3318.
9 Mine eye 5869 mourneth 1669 by reason of affliction 6040: LORD 3068, I have called 7121 daily 3117 upon thee, I have stretched out 7849 my hands 3709 unto thee.
10 Wilt thou shew 6213 wonders 6382 to the dead 4191? shall the dead 7496 arise 6965 and praise 3034 thee? Selah 5542.
11 Shall thy lovingkindness 2617 be declared 5608 in the grave 6913? or thy faithfulness 530 in destruction 11?
12 Shall thy wonders 6382 be known 3045 in the dark 2822? and thy righteousness 6666 in the land 776 of forgetfulness 5388?
13 But unto thee have I cried 7768, O LORD 3068; and in the morning 1242 shall my prayer 8605 prevent 6923 thee.
14 LORD 3068, why castest thou off 2186 my soul 5315? why hidest 5641 thou thy face 6440 from me?
15 I am afflicted 6041 and ready to die 1478 from my youth 5290 up: while I suffer 5375 thy terrors 367 I am distracted 6323.
16 Thy fierce wrath 2740 goeth over 5674 me; thy terrors 1161 have cut me off 6789.
17 They came round about 5437 me daily 3117 like water 4325; they compassed 5362 me about together 3162.
18 Lover 157 and friend 7453 hast thou put far 7368 from me, and mine acquaintance 3045 into darkness 4285.
