10:1 Why, Lord, do you stand far off?
Why do you pay no attention during times of trouble? 2
For the music director; a psalm of David.
13:1 How long, Lord, will you continue to ignore me? 4
How long will you pay no attention to me? 5
13:2 How long must I worry, 6
and suffer in broad daylight? 7
How long will my enemy gloat over me? 8
102:10 because of your anger and raging fury.
Indeed, 9 you pick me up and throw me away.
104:29 When you ignore them, they panic. 10
When you take away their life’s breath, they die
and return to dust.
143:7 Answer me quickly, Lord!
My strength is fading. 11
Do not reject me, 12
or I will join 13 those descending into the grave. 14
30:26 But when I hoped for good, trouble came;
when I expected light, then darkness came.
30:27 My heart 15 is in turmoil 16 unceasingly; 17
the days of my affliction confront me.
30:28 I go about blackened, 18 but not by the sun;
in the assembly I stand up and cry for help.
30:29 I have become a brother to jackals
and a companion of ostriches. 19
30:30 My skin has turned dark on me; 20
my body 21 is hot with fever. 22
30:31 My harp is used for 23 mourning
and my flute for the sound of weeping.
38:17 “Look, the grief I experienced was for my benefit. 24
You delivered me 25 from the pit of oblivion. 26
For you removed all my sins from your sight. 27
