1
O Lord, God of my salvation, when, at night, I cry out in your presence,
2
let my prayer come before you; incline your ear to my cry.
3
For my soul is full of troubles, and my life draws near to Sheol.
4
I am counted among those who go down to the Pit; I am like those who have no help,
5
like those forsaken among the dead, like the slain that lie in the grave, like those whom you remember no more, for they are cut off from your hand.
6
You have put me in the depths of the Pit, in the regions dark and deep.
