3 Let my prayer enter in your sight. Incline your ear to my petition.
4 For my soul has been filled with evils, and my life has drawn near to Hell.
5 I am considered to be among those who will descend into the pit. I have become like a man without assistance,
6 idle among the dead. I am like the wounded sleeping in sepulchers, whom you no longer remember, and who have been repelled by your hand.
7 They have lain me in the lower pit: in dark places and in the shadow of death.
8 Your fury has been confirmed over me. And you have brought all your waves upon me.
9 You have sent my acquaintances far from me. They have set me as an abomination to themselves. I was handed over, yet I did not depart.
