For my life is ending with grief, and my years with sighing; my strength fails because of my iniquity, and my bones have wasted away.
For my sighing comes before I eat, and my groanings are poured out like the waters.
How long shall I take counsel in my heart having sorrow in my heart daily? How long shall my enemy be lifted up over me?
Hear, O Jehovah, when I cry with my voice; and have mercy on me, and answer me.
There is no soundness in my flesh because of Your anger; nor rest in my bones because of my sin.
You correct a man for iniquity with rebukes, and you make his desires vanish away like a moth. Surely every man is vanity. Selah.
Depart from me, all workers of iniquity; for Jehovah has heard the voice of my weeping.
Cast me not off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength fails.
Therefore He ended their days in vanity and their years in trouble.
I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up; while I suffer Your terrors, I pine away.
that I have great heaviness and continual pain in my heart.
