1. A Song, a Psalm, by sons of Korah, to the Overseer, `Concerning the Sickness of Afflictions.` -- An instruction, by Heman the Ezrahite. O Jehovah, God of my salvation, Daily I have cried, nightly before Thee,
|
1. A Song H7892 or Psalm H4210 for the sons H1121 of Korah H7141 , to the chief Musician H5329 upon H5921 Mahalath H4257 Leannoth H6031 , Maschil H4905 of Heman H1968 the Ezrahite H250 . O LORD H3068 God H430 of my salvation H3444 , I have cried H6817 day H3117 and night H3915 before H5048 thee:
|
2. My prayer cometh in before Thee, Incline Thine ear to my loud cry,
|
2. Let my prayer H8605 come H935 before H6440 thee: incline H5186 thine ear H241 unto my cry H7440 ;
|
3. For my soul hath been full of evils, And my life hath come to Sheol.
|
3. For H3588 my soul H5315 is full H7646 of troubles H7451 : and my life H2416 draweth nigh H5060 unto the grave H7585 .
|
4. I have been reckoned with those going down to the pit, I have been as a man without strength.
|
4. I am counted H2803 with H5973 them that go down H3381 into the pit H953 : I am H1961 as a man H1397 that hath no H369 strength H353 :
|
5. Among the dead -- free, As pierced ones lying in the grave, Whom Thou hast not remembered any more, Yea, they by Thy hand have been cut off.
|
5. Free H2670 among the dead H4191 , like H3644 the slain H2491 that lie H7901 in the grave H6913 , whom H834 thou rememberest H2142 no H3808 more H5750 : and they H1992 are cut off H1504 from thy hand H4480 H3027 .
|
6. Thou hast put me in the lowest pit, In dark places, in depths.
|
6. Thou hast laid H7896 me in the lowest H8482 pit H953 , in darkness H4285 , in the deeps H4688 .
|
7. Upon me hath Thy fury lain, And with all Thy breakers Thou hast afflicted. Selah.
|
7. Thy wrath H2534 lieth hard H5564 upon H5921 me , and thou hast afflicted H6031 me with all H3605 thy waves H4867 . Selah H5542 .
|
8. Thou hast put mine acquaintance far from me, Thou hast made me an abomination to them, Shut up -- I go not forth.
|
8. Thou hast put away H7368 mine acquaintance H3045 far from H4480 me ; thou hast made H7896 me an abomination H8441 unto them: I am shut up H3607 , and I cannot H3808 come forth H3318 .
|
9. Mine eye hath grieved because of affliction, I called Thee, O Jehovah, all the day, I have spread out unto Thee my hands.
|
9. Mine eye H5869 mourneth H1669 by reason of H4480 affliction H6040 : LORD H3068 , I have called H7121 daily H3605 H3117 upon thee , I have stretched out H7849 my hands H3709 unto thee H413 .
|
10. To the dead dost Thou do wonders? Do Rephaim rise? do they thank Thee? Selah.
|
10. Wilt thou show H6213 wonders H6382 to the dead H4191 ? shall the dead H7496 arise H6965 and praise H3034 thee? Selah H5542 .
|
11. Is Thy kindness recounted in the grave? Thy faithfulness in destruction?
|
11. Shall thy lovingkindness H2617 be declared H5608 in the grave H6913 ? or thy faithfulness H530 in destruction H11 ?
|
12. Are Thy wonders known in the darkness? And Thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?
|
12. Shall thy wonders H6382 be known H3045 in the dark H2822 ? and thy righteousness H6666 in the land H776 of forgetfulness H5388 ?
|
13. And I, unto Thee, O Jehovah, I have cried, And in the morning doth my prayer come before Thee.
|
13. But unto H413 thee have I H589 cried H7768 , O LORD H3068 ; and in the morning H1242 shall my prayer H8605 prevent H6923 thee.
|
14. Why, O Jehovah, castest Thou off my soul? Thou hidest Thy face from me.
|
14. LORD H3068 , why H4100 castest thou off H2186 my soul H5315 ? why hidest H5641 thou thy face H6440 from H4480 me?
|
15. I am afflicted, and expiring from youth, I have borne Thy terrors -- I pine away.
|
15. I H589 am afflicted H6041 and ready to die H1478 from my youth up H4480 H5290 : while I suffer H5375 thy terrors H367 I am distracted H6323 .
|
16. Over me hath Thy wrath passed, Thy terrors have cut me off,
|
16. Thy fierce wrath H2740 goeth H5674 over H5921 me ; thy terrors H1161 have cut me off H6789 .
|
17. They have surrounded me as waters all the day, They have gone round against me together,
|
17. They came round about H5437 me daily H3605 H3117 like water H4325 ; they compassed me about H5362 H5921 together H3162 .
|
18. Thou hast put far from me lover and friend, Mine acquaintance is the place of darkness!
|
18. Lover H157 and friend H7453 hast thou put far H7368 from H4480 me, and mine acquaintance H3045 into darkness H4285 .
