1. A Song, a Psalm, by sons of Korah, to the Overseer, `Concerning the Sickness of Afflictions.' --An instruction, by Heman the Ezrahite. O Jehovah, God of my salvation, Daily I have cried, nightly before Thee,
2. My prayer cometh in before Thee, Incline Thine ear to my loud cry,
3. For my soul hath been full of evils, And my life hath come to Sheol.
4. I have been reckoned with those going down [to] the pit, I have been as a man without strength.
5. Among the dead--free, As pierced ones lying in the grave, Whom Thou hast not remembered any more, Yea, they by Thy hand have been cut off.
6. Thou hast put me in the lowest pit, In dark places, in depths.
