Their being loathed all food, And they drew near to the gates of death,
Were the gates of death revealed to you? Or have you seen the gates of the shadow of death?
For my being is filled with evils, And my life draws near to the grave.
Show favour to me, O יהוה! See my affliction by those who hate me, You who lift me up from the gates of death,
I said, “Am I to go into the gates of the grave in the prime of my life? Shall I be deprived of the rest of my years?”
