1. My voice is unto God and I will cry; my voice is unto God and he will give ear unto me.
2. In the day of my trouble, I sought the Lord: my hand was stretched out in the night, and slacked not; my soul refused to be comforted.
3. I remembered God and I moaned; I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. Selah.
4. Thou holdest open mine eyelids; I am full of disquiet and cannot speak.
5. I consider the days of old, the years of ancient times.
6. I remember my song in the night; I muse in mine own heart, and my spirit maketh diligent search.
