And, Lord, I cried to thee; and early my prayer shall before come to thee.
before that I go, and turn not again, to the dark land, and covered with the darkness of death,
to the land of wretchedness, and of darknesses; where is shadow of death, and none order, but everlasting hideousness dwelleth.
My Lord God, I cried to thee; and thou madest me whole.
hear thou early my voice. Early I shall stand nigh to thee, and I shall see;
For they that live know that they shall die; but dead men know nothing more, neither have meed further; for their mind is given to forgetting.
Thou heardest my voice; turn thou not away thine ear from my sobbing and cries.
And he rose full early [or in the morrowing], and went out, and went into a desert place, and prayed there.
