2. O Lord, the God of my salvation: I have cried in the day, and in the night before thee.
3. Let my prayer come in before thee: incline thy ear to my petition.
4. For my soul is filled with evils: and my life hath drawn nigh to hell.
5. I am counted among them that go down to the pit: I am become as a man without help,
6. free among the dead. Like the slain sleeping in the sepulchres, whom thou rememberest no more: and they are cast off from thy hand.
7. They have laid me in the lower pit: in the dark places, and in the shadow of death.
8. Thy wrath is strong over me: and all thy waves thou hast brought in upon me.
9. Thou hast put away my acquaintance far from me: they have set me an abomination to themselves. I was delivered up, and came not forth:
10. my eyes languished through poverty. All the day I cried to thee, O Lord: I stretched out my hands to thee.
