2 For he hath inclined his ear unto me, and I will call upon him during [all] my days.
2 Because he turned his ear to me, I will call on him as long as I live.
3 The bands of death encompassed me, and the anguish of Sheol took hold of me; I found trouble and sorrow:
3 The cords of death entangled me, the anguish of the grave came over me; I was overcome by distress and sorrow.
