2. Receive my prayer,and listen to my cry.
3. My life is full of troubles,and I am nearly dead.
4. They think I am on the way to my grave.I am like a man with no strength.
5. I have been left as dead,like a body lying in a gravewhom you don’t remember anymore,cut off from your care.
6. You have brought me close to death;I am almost in the dark place of the dead.
7. You have been very angry with me;all your waves crush me.Selah
8. You have taken my friends away from meand have made them hate me.I am trapped and cannot escape.
9. My eyes are weak from crying.Lord, I have prayed to you every day;I have lifted my hands in prayer to you.
10. Do you show your miracles for the dead?Do their spirits rise up and praise you?Selah
11. Will your love be told in the grave?Will your loyalty be told in the place of death?
12. Will your miracles be known in the dark grave?Will your goodness be known in the land of forgetfulness?
