Who praises you from the grave?¹⁰ 6 I am worn out¹¹ from my groaning.¹² All night long I flood my bed with weeping¹³ and drench my couch with tears.¹⁴ 7 My eyes grow weak¹⁵ with sorrow; they fail because of all my foes. 8 Away from me,¹⁶ all you who do evil,¹⁷ for the LORD has heard my weeping. 9 The LORD has heard my cry for mercy;¹⁸ the LORD accepts my prayer. 10 All my enemies will be overwhelmed with shame and anguish;¹⁹ they will turn back and suddenly be put to shame.²⁰
