44. Thou hast covered thyself with a cloud, so that no prayer can pass through.
45. Thou hast made us an off-scouring and refuse in the midst of the peoples.
46. All our enemies have opened their mouth wide against us.
47. Fear and the pit are come upon us, devastation and destruction.
48. Mine eye runneth down with streams of water, for the destruction of the daughter of my people.
49. Mine eye poureth down, and ceaseth not, without any intermission,
50. Till Jehovah look down, and behold from heaven.
51. Mine eye affecteth my soul, because of all the daughters of my city.
52. They have chased me sore like a bird, they that are mine enemies without cause.
53. They have cut off my life in the dungeon, and have cast a stone upon me.
54. Waters flowed over my head; I said, I am cut off.
55. I called upon thy name, O Jehovah, out of the lowest dungeon.
56. Thou heardest my voice; hide not thine ear at my breathing, at my cry.
57. Thou drewest near in the day that I called upon thee; thou saidst, Fear not.
58. O Lord, thou hast pleaded the causes of my soul; thou hast redeemed my life.
59. O Jehovah, thou hast seen my wrong; judge thou my cause.
60. Thou hast seen all their vengeance and all their devices against me.
61. Thou hast heard their reproach, O Jehovah, and all their devices against me,
62. The lips of those that rose up against me, and their device against me all the day.
