1 O Lord, the God of my salvation, I have cried day and night before thee:
2 Let my prayer enter into thy presence; incline thine ear unto my cry:
3 For my soul is full of troubles, and my life draweth nigh unto Sheol.
4 I am counted with them that go down into the pit; I am as a man that hath no help:
5 Cast off among the dead, like the slain that lie in the grave, whom thou rememberest no more; and they are cut off from thy hand.
6 Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in dark places, in the deeps.
7 Thy wrath lieth hard upon me, and thou hast afflicted me with all thy waves. Selah
