3 For my soul is full of troubles,And my life draws near to the grave.
4 I am counted with those who go down to the pit;I am like a man who has no strength,
5 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.
6 You have laid me in the lowest pit,In darkness, in the depths.
7 Your wrath lies heavy upon me,And You have afflicted me with all Your waves.Selah
8 You have put away my acquaintances far from me;You have made me an abomination to them;I am shut up, and I cannot get out;
9 My eye wastes away because of affliction.Lord, I have called daily upon You;I have stretched out my hands to You.
