O Lord, God of my salvation, I have cried out day and night before You.Let my prayer come before You; Incline Your ear to my cry.For my soul is full of troubles, And my life draws near to the grave.I am counted with those who go down to the pit; I am like a man who has no strength,Adrift among the dead, Like the slain who lie in the grave, Whom You remember no more, And who are cut off from Your hand.You have laid me in the lowest pit, In darkness, in the depths.Your wrath lies heavy upon me, And You have afflicted me with all Your waves.
