Give
ear to my
prayer, O
God; and
hide not thyself from my
supplication.

Attend unto me, and
hear me: I
mourn in my
complaint, and make a
noise;

Because of the
voice of the
enemy,
because of the
oppression of the
wicked: for they
cast iniquity upon me, and in
wrath they
hate me.

My

pained within me: and the
terrors of
death are
fallen upon me.

Fearfulness and

horror hath
overwhelmed me.

And I
said, Oh

wings like a

away, and be at
rest.

Lo, then would I
wander far

remain in the

I would

Destroy, O

divide their

seen violence and

Day and

mischief also and

Wickedness is in the

For it was not an
enemy that
reproached me; then I could have
borne it: neither was it he that
hated me that did
magnify himself against me; then I would have
hid myself from him:

We took

Let

Evening, and

God shall

He hath put

The words of his

Cast thy

But thou, O
