¹ O Lord, the ^(a)God of my salvation,
I have ^(b)cried out by day and in the night before You.
² Let my prayer ^(c)come before You;
^(d)Incline Your ear to my cry!
³ For my ^(e)soul has ^[c]had enough troubles,
And ^(f)my life has drawn near to ^[d]Sheol.
⁴ I am reckoned among those who ^(g)go down to the pit;
I have become like a man ^(h)without strength,
^5 [e]Forsaken ⁽ⁱ⁾among the dead,
Like the slain who lie in the grave,
Whom You remember no more,
And they are ^(j)cut off from Your hand.
⁶ You have put me in ^(k)the lowest pit,
In ^(l)dark places, in the ^(m)depths.
⁷ Your wrath ⁽ⁿ⁾has rested upon me,
And You have afflicted me with ^(o)all Your waves. ^[f]Selah.
⁸ You have removed ^(p)my acquaintances far from me;
You have made me an ^[g](q)object of loathing to them;
I am ^(r)shut up and cannot go out.
⁹ My ^(s)eye has wasted away because of affliction;
I have ^(t)called upon You every day, O Lord;
I have ^(u)spread out my ^[h]hands to You.

¹⁰ Will You perform wonders for the dead?
Will ^(v)the ^[i]departed spirits rise and praise You? Selah.
¹¹ Will Your lovingkindness be declared in the grave,
Your faithfulness in ^[j]Abaddon?
¹² Will Your wonders be made known in the ^(w)darkness?
And Your ^[k]righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?

¹³ But I, O Lord, have cried out ^(x)to You for help,
And ^(y)in the morning my prayer comes before You.
¹⁴ O Lord, why ^(z)do You reject my soul?
Why do You ^(aa)hide Your face from me?
¹⁵ I was afflicted and ^(ab)about to die from my youth on;
I suffer ^(ac)Your terrors; I am ^[l]overcome.
¹⁶ Your ^(ad)burning anger has passed over me;
Your terrors have ^[m](ae)destroyed me.
¹⁷ They have ^(af)surrounded me ^(ag)like water all day long;
They have ^(ah)encompassed me altogether.
¹⁸ You have removed ^(ai)lover and friend far from me;
My acquaintances are in darkness.
