My heart pounds, and my strength is gone. My eyes can hardly see.
My eyes grow tired as I look to you to save me. Please save me as you have promised.
Pain has taken over my life. My years are spent in groaning. I have no strength because I’m hurting so much. My body is getting weaker and weaker.
A deer longs for streams of water. God, I long for you in the same way.
I’m so sad I can’t see very well. My eyesight gets worse because of all my enemies.
I’m worn out from calling for help. My throat is very dry. My eyes grow tired looking for my God.
I’m crying so much I can’t see very well. Lord, I call out to you every day. I lift up my hands to you in prayer.
My heart grows weak. Fear makes me tremble. I longed for evening to come. But it brought me horror instead of rest.
I’ve cried so much I can’t see very well. I’m suffering deep down inside. My heart is broken because my people are destroyed. Children and babies are fainting in the streets of the city.
