From the end of the earth I call to You when my heart is faint; Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
When my spirit felt weak within me, You knew my path. In the way where I walk They have hidden a trap for me.
Therefore my spirit feels weak within me; My heart is appalled within me.
Hear a just cause, Lord, give Your attention to my cry; Listen to my prayer, which is not from deceitful lips.
The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my savior, My God, my rock, in whom I take refuge; My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.
¶The Lord lives, and blessed be my rock; And exalted be the God of my salvation,
For on the day of trouble He will conceal me in His tabernacle; He will hide me in the secret place of His tent; He will lift me up on a rock.
He brought me up out of the pit of destruction, out of the mud; And He set my feet on a rock, making my footsteps firm.
My soul is in despair within me; Therefore I remember You from the land of the Jordan And the peaks of Hermon, from Mount Mizar.
¶Why are you in despair, my soul? And why are you restless within me? Wait for God, for I will again praise Him For the help of His presence, my God.
Fear and trembling come upon me, And horror has overwhelmed me.
He alone is my rock and my salvation, My stronghold; I will not be greatly shaken.
He alone is my rock and my salvation, My refuge; I will not be shaken.
When I remember God, then I am restless; When I sigh, then my spirit feels weak. Selah

¶“Afflicted one, storm-tossed, and not comforted, Behold, I will set your stones in antimony, And I will lay your foundations with sapphires.
And being in agony, He was praying very fervently; and His sweat became like drops of blood, falling down upon the ground].
But from there you will seek the Lord your God, and you will find Him if you search for Him with all your heart and all your soul.
