45. You’ve shortened the prime of his life.You’ve wrapped him up in shame. Selah
46. How long will it last, Lord?Will you hide yourself forever?How long will your wrath burn like fire?
47. Remember how short my life is!Have you created humans for no good reason?
48. Who lives their life without seeing death?Who is ever rescued from the grip of the grave? Selah
49. Where now are your loving actsfrom long ago, my Lord—the same ones you promised to Davidby your own faithfulness?
50. Remember your servant’s abuse, my Lord!Remember how I bear in my heartall the insults of the nations,
51. the ones your enemies, Lord, use—the ones they use to abuseevery step your anointed one takes.
52. Bless the Lord forever!Amen and Amen!
