For my lifeis spentwith sorrowAnd my yearswith sighing;My strengthhas failedbecause of my iniquity,And my bodyhas wastedaway.
"For my groaningcomesat the sightof my food,And my criespourout like water.
Howlongshall I takecounselin my soul,[Having] sorrowin my heartall the day?Howlongwill my enemybe exaltedoverme?
Hear,O LORD,when I crywith my voice,And be graciousto me and answerme.
Thereis nosoundnessin my fleshbecauseof Your indignation;Thereis nohealthin my bonesbecauseof my sin.
"With reproofsYou chastena manfor iniquity;You consumeas a mothwhat is preciousto him; Surelyeverymanis a merebreath.Selah.
Departfrom me, allyou who doiniquity,For the LORDhas heardthe voiceof my weeping.
Do not castme offin the timeof oldage;Do not forsakeme when my strengthfails.
So He broughttheir daysto an endin futilityAnd their yearsin suddenterror.
I was afflictedand about to diefrom my youthon; I sufferYour terrors;I am overcome.
that I have greatsorrowand unceasinggriefin my heart.
