To You will I cry, O Lord my rock; do not be silent to me, lest, if You are silent to me, I become like those who go down to the pit.
Answer me quickly, O Lord; my spirit fails! Hide not Your face from me, lest I be like those who go down into the pit.
The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge; my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.
let us swallow them up alive like Sheol, and whole, like those who go down into the pit;
Do not keep silent, O God; do not hold Your peace or be still, O God.
He cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal on him, that he should deceive the nations no more, until the thousand years were ended. After that he must be set free for a little while.
Trust in the Lord forever, for in God the Lord we have an everlasting rock.
He will deliver his soul from going down to the pit, and his life will see the light.
For Sheol cannot thank You, death cannot praise You; those who go down into the pit cannot hope for Your faithfulness.
This You have seen, O Lord; do not be silent! O Lord, be not far from me!
“What profit is there in my death, if I go down to the pit? Will the dust praise You? Will it declare Your faithfulness?
O my God, I cry in the daytime, but You do not answer; and at night, and have no rest.
I cried to the Lord with my voice, and He answered me from His holy hill. Selah
My voice rises to God, thus will I cry aloud; my voice rises to God, thus will He hear me.
Let not the flood overflow me, nor let the deep swallow me up; and let not the pit close its mouth on me.
Listen to the voice of my cry, my King and my God, for to You will I pray.
I cry out to the Lord with my voice; with my voice to the Lord do I make my supplication.
Hear my prayer, O Lord, and give ear to my cry; do not be silent at my tears. For I am a stranger with You, and a sojourner, as all my fathers were.
I will say to God, my rock, “Why have You forgotten me? Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?”
Sing to the Lord, you saints of His, and give thanks at the remembrance of His holy name.
I pour out my complaint before Him; I declare my trouble before Him.
