As for me, is my complaint to man? and if it were so, why should not my spirit be troubled?
That you enquire after my iniquity, and search after my sin?
What is my strength, that I should hope? and what is my end, that I should prolong my life?
Hear my prayer, O LORD, and let my cry come to you.
Why are you cast down, O my soul? and why are you disquieted within me? hope you in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.
And Moses spoke so to the children of Israel: but they listened not to Moses for anguish of spirit, and for cruel bondage.
Then said he to them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even to death: tarry you here, and watch with me.
Count not your handmaid for a daughter of Belial: for out of the abundance of my complaint and grief have I spoken till now.
