2. O Lord, hear my prayer, and let my outcry reach you.
3. Do not turn your face away from me. In whatever day that I am in trouble, incline your ear to me. In whatever day that I will call upon you, heed me quickly.
4. For my days have faded away like smoke, and my bones have dried out like firewood.
5. I have been cut down like hay, and my heart has withered, for I had forgotten to eat my bread.
6. Before the voice of my groaning, my bone has adhered to my flesh.
7. I have become like a pelican in solitude. I have become like a night raven in a house.
8. I have kept vigil, and I have become like a solitary sparrow on a roof.
9. All day long my enemies reproached me, and those who praised me swore oaths against me.
10. For I chewed on ashes like bread, and I mixed weeping into my drink.
11. By the face of your anger and indignation, you lifted me up and threw me down.
