Good News Translation GNT
New International Version NIV
1 Lord God, my savior, I cry out all day, and at night I come before you.
1
LORD, you are the God who saves me; day and night I cry out to you.
2 Hear my prayer; listen to my cry for help!
2
May my prayer come before you; turn your ear to my cry.
3 So many troubles have fallen on me that I am close to death.
3
I am overwhelmed with troubles and my life draws near to death.
4 I am like all others who are about to die; all my strength is gone.
4
I am counted among those who go down to the pit; I am like one without strength.
5 I am abandoned among the dead; I am like the slain lying in their graves, those you have forgotten completely, who are beyond your help.
5
I am set apart with the dead, like the slain who lie in the grave, whom you remember no more, who are cut off from your care.
6 You have thrown me into the depths of the tomb, into the darkest and deepest pit.
6
You have put me in the lowest pit, in the darkest depths.
