For my life is spent with grief, and my years with sighing: my strength faileth because of mine iniquity, and my bones are consumed.
For my sighing cometh before I eat, and my roarings are poured out like the waters.
How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart daily? How long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?
Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me.
There is no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither is there any rest in my bones because of my sin.
When thou with rebukes dost correct man for iniquity, thou makest his beauty to consume away like a moth: surely every man is vanity. Selah.
Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for the Lord hath heard the voice of my weeping.
Cast me not off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength faileth.
Therefore their days did he consume in vanity, and their years in trouble.
I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up: while I suffer thy terrors I am distracted.
that I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart.
