Mine eyes fail for thy salvation, And for the word of thy righteousness.
My soul waiteth for the Lord More than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning.
Hear me speedily, O LORD: my spirit faileth: Hide not thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit.
I am weary of my crying: my throat is dried: Mine eyes fail while I wait for my God.
As for us, our eyes as yet failed For our vain help: In our watching we have watched For a nation that could not save us.
Let thy mercies come also unto me, O LORD, Even thy salvation, according to thy word.
