1O LORD, God of my salvation, I cry out day and night before you.1שִׁ֥יר מִזְמ֗וֹר לִבְנֵ֫י קֹ֥רַח לַמְנַצֵּ֣חַ עַל־ מָחֲלַ֣ת לְעַנּ֑וֹת מַ֝שְׂכִּ֗יל לְהֵימָ֥ן הָאֶזְרָחִֽי׃ יְ֭הוָה אֱלֹהֵ֣י יְשׁוּעָתִ֑י יוֹם־ צָעַ֖קְתִּי בַלַּ֣יְלָה נֶגְדֶּֽךָ׃
2Let my prayer come before you; incline your ear to my cry!2תָּב֣וֹא לְ֭פָנֶיךָ תְּפִלָּתִ֑י הַטֵּֽה־ אָ֝זְנְךָ֗ לְרִנָּתִֽי׃
3For my soul is full of troubles, and my life draws near to Sheol.3כִּֽי־ שָֽׂבְעָ֣ה בְרָע֣וֹת נַפְשִׁ֑י וְחַיַּ֗י לִשְׁא֥וֹל הִגִּֽיעוּ׃
4I am counted among those who go down to the pit; I am a man who has no strength,4נֶ֭חְשַׁבְתִּי עִם־ י֣וֹרְדֵי ב֑וֹר הָ֝יִ֗יתִי כְּגֶ֣בֶר אֵֽין־ אֱיָֽל׃
5like one set loose among the dead, like the slain that lie in the grave, like those whom you remember no more, for they are cut off from your hand.5בַּמֵּתִ֗ים חָ֫פְשִׁ֥י כְּמ֤וֹ חֲלָלִ֨ים ׀ שֹׁ֥כְבֵי קֶ֗בֶר אֲשֶׁ֤ר לֹ֣א זְכַרְתָּ֣ם ע֑וֹד וְ֝הֵ֗מָּה מִיָּדְךָ֥ נִגְזָֽרוּ׃
6You have put me in the depths of the pit, in the regions dark and deep.6שַׁ֭תַּנִי בְּב֣וֹר תַּחְתִּיּ֑וֹת בְּ֝מַחֲשַׁכִּ֗ים בִּמְצֹלֽוֹת׃
7Your wrath lies heavy upon me, and you overwhelm me with all your waves. Selah7עָ֭לַי סָמְכָ֣ה חֲמָתֶ֑ךָ וְכָל־ מִ֝שְׁבָּרֶ֗יךָ עִנִּ֥יתָ סֶּֽלָה׃
8You have caused my companions to shun me; you have made me a horror to them. I am shut in so that I cannot escape;8הִרְחַ֥קְתָּ מְיֻדָּעַ֗י מִ֫מֶּ֥נִּי שַׁתַּ֣נִי תוֹעֵב֣וֹת לָ֑מוֹ כָּ֝לֻ֗א וְלֹ֣א אֵצֵֽא׃
9my eye grows dim through sorrow. Every day I call upon you, O LORD; I spread out my hands to you.9עֵינִ֥י דָאֲבָ֗ה מִנִּ֫י עֹ֥נִי קְרָאתִ֣יךָ יְהוָ֣ה בְּכָל־ י֑וֹם שִׁטַּ֖חְתִּי אֵלֶ֣יךָ כַפָּֽי׃
10Do you work wonders for the dead? Do the departed rise up to praise you? Selah10הֲלַמֵּתִ֥ים תַּעֲשֶׂה־ פֶּ֑לֶא אִם־ רְ֝פָאִ֗ים יָק֤וּמוּ ׀ יוֹד֬וּךָ סֶּֽלָה׃
11Is your steadfast love declared in the grave, or your faithfulness in Abaddon?11הַיְסֻפַּ֣ר בַּקֶּ֣בֶר חַסְדֶּ֑ךָ אֱ֝מֽוּנָתְךָ֗ בָּאֲבַדּֽוֹן׃
12Are your wonders known in the darkness, or your righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?12הֲיִוָּדַ֣ע בַּחֹ֣שֶׁךְ פִּלְאֶ֑ךָ וְ֝צִדְקָתְךָ֗ בְּאֶ֣רֶץ נְשִׁיָּֽה׃
13But I, O LORD, cry to you; in the morning my prayer comes before you.13וַאֲנִ֤י ׀ אֵלֶ֣יךָ יְהוָ֣ה שִׁוַּ֑עְתִּי וּ֝בַבֹּ֗קֶר תְּֽפִלָּתִ֥י תְקַדְּמֶֽךָּ׃
14O LORD, why do you cast my soul away? Why do you hide your face from me?14לָמָ֣ה יְ֭הוָה תִּזְנַ֣ח נַפְשִׁ֑י תַּסְתִּ֖יר פָּנֶ֣יךָ מִמֶּֽנִּי׃
15Afflicted and close to death from my youth up, I suffer your terrors; I am helpless.15עָ֘נִ֤י אֲנִ֣י וְגֹוֵ֣עַ מִנֹּ֑עַר נָשָׂ֖אתִי אֵמֶ֣יךָ אָפֽוּנָה׃
16Your wrath has swept over me; your dreadful assaults destroy me.16עָ֭לַי עָבְר֣וּ חֲרוֹנֶ֑יךָ בִּ֝עוּתֶ֗יךָ צִמְּתוּתֻֽנִי׃
17They surround me like a flood all day long; they close in on me together.17סַבּ֣וּנִי כַ֭מַּיִם כָּל־ הַיּ֑וֹם הִקִּ֖יפוּ עָלַ֣י יָֽחַד׃
18You have caused my beloved and my friend to shun me; my companions have become darkness.18הִרְחַ֣קְתָּ מִ֭מֶּנִּי אֹהֵ֣ב וָרֵ֑עַ מְֽיֻדָּעַ֥י מַחְשָֽׁךְ׃
