My eyes fail, longing for Your salvation and for Your righteous word.
Be gracious to me, Adonai, for I am in distress. My eyes waste away with grief, my soul and my body as well.
I am worn out with my groaning. Every night I make my bed swim, drenching my pillow with my tears.
I have sunk in deep mud, and there is no footing, I have come into deep waters, and a flood sweeps over me.
You have put my companions far from me. You have made me repulsive to them. I am shut in and I cannot go out.
My heart is bewildered, terror overwhelms me. The twilight I longed for has been turned into trembling.
My eyes are filled with tears. My stomach is in torment. My heart is poured out on the ground over the destruction of the daughter of my people— as young children and infants languish in the city squares.
