2: I sinkH2883 in mire,H3121 deepH4688 and where [there is] noH0369 standing-H4613 I have comeH0935 into deepH4615 waters,H4325 and where the floodsH7641 overflow me.H7857

3: I am wearyH3021 with my crying-H7121 is dry-H2787 My throatH1627 failH3615 My eyesH5869 while I waitH3176 for my God.H0430

4: Are moreH7231 than the hairsH8185 of my head-H7218 Those who hate meH8130 without a causeH2600 they are mighty,H6105 who would destroy meH6789 [Being] my enemiesH0341 wrongfully,H8267 ThoughH0834 nothingH3808 I have stolenH1497 [still]H0227 I must restore [it].H7725

5: God,H0430 YouH0859 knowH3045 my foolishness-H0200 and my sinsH0819 from YouH4480 notH3808 are hidden.H3582

6: NotH0408 let be made ashamedH0954 those who wait for YouH6960 LordH0136 GODH3069 of hosts,H6635 notH0408 let be confoundedH3637 those who seek YouH1245 GodH0430 of Israel.H3478

7: BecauseH3588 for Your sakeH5921 I have borneH5375 reproach-H2781 has coveredH3680 ShameH3639 my face.H6440

8: A strangerH2114 I have becomeH1961 to my brothers,H0251 and a sojournerH5237 to childrenH1121 of my mother.H0517

9: BecauseH3588 zeal forH7068 Your houseH1004 has eaten me up-H0398 and the reproachesH2781 of those who reproach YouH2778 have fallenH5307 on me.H5921

10: And when I wept [and chastened],H1058 with fasting,H6685 my soulH5315 that becameH1961 reproachH2781

11: And I madeH5414 my garment-H3830 sackclothH8242 and I becameH1961 to themH1992 a byword.H4912

12: SpeakH7878 Those who sitH3427 in the gateH8179 and I [am] the songH5058 ofH8354 the drunkards.H7941

13: But [as for] me,H0589 my prayer [is]H8605 Yahweh,H3068 [in] the time-H6256 acceptableH7522 God,H0430 in the multitudeH7230 of Your mercyH2617 Hear meH6030 in the truthH0571 of Your salvation.H3468

14: Deliver meH5337 out of the mire,H2916 and notH0408 let me sink-H2883 let me be deliveredH5337 from those who hate meH8130 and out of deepH4615 the waters.H4325

15: NotH0408 let overflow meH7857 the floodH7641 the floodwaterH4325 norH0408 let swallow me up,H1104 the deepH4688 and notH0408 let shutH0332 on meH5921 the pitH0875 its mouth.H6310

16: Hear meH6030 Yahweh-H3068 forH3588 good-H2896 Your lovingkindness [is]H2617 according to the multitudeH7230 of Your tender merciesH7356 TurnH6437 to me.H0413

17: And notH0408 do hideH5641 Your faceH6440 from Your servant-H5650 forH3588 in troubleH6887 speedilyH4118 Hear me.H6030

18: Draw nearH7126 toH0413 my soul,H5315 [and] redeem itH1350 becauseH4616 of my enemiesH0341 Deliver me.H6299

19: YouH0859 knowH3045 my reproach,H2781 and my shame,H1322 and my dishonor-H3639 before YouH5048 allH3605 My adversaries [are].H6887

20: ReproachH2781 has brokenH7665 my heart-H3820 and I am full of heaviness.H5136 And I looked [for someone]H6960 to take pity,H5110 but [there was] none-H0369 and for comforters,H5162 but noneH3808 I found.H4672

21: And they gave meH5414 for my food-H1267 gallH7219 and for my thirstH6772 they gave me to drinkH8248 vinegar.H2558

22: Let becomeH1961 their tableH7979 before themH6440 a snareH6341 and their well-being,H7965 a trap.H4170

23: Let be darkened,H2821 their eyesH5869 so that they do not see-H7200 and make their loinsH4975 continuallyH8548 shake.H4571

24: Pour outH8210 upon themH5921 Your indignationH2195 and wrathfulH2740 Your angerH0639 let take hold of them.H5381

25: Let beH1961 their dwelling placeH2918 desolate-H8074 in their tents.H0168 No oneH0408 letH1961 live.H3427

26: ForH3588 YouH0859 the [ones]H0834 have struck-H5221 they persecuteH7291 andH0413 of the griefH4341 of those You have woundedH2491 talk.H5608

27: AddH5414 iniquityH5771 toH5921 their iniquity,H5771 and notH0408 let them comeH0935 into Your righteousness.H6666

28: Let them be blottedH4229 out of the bookH5612 of the living,H2416 and withH5973 the righteousH6662 notH0408 be written.H3789

29: But I [am]H0589 poorH6041 and sorrowful-H3510 Your salvation,H3444 God,H0430 let set me up on high.H7682

30: I will praiseH1984 the nameH8034 of GodH0430 with a song,H7892 and will magnify HimH1431 with thanksgiving.H8426

31: And [This] shall pleaseH3190 YahwehH3068 better than an oxH7794 [or] bullH6499 which has hornsH7160 and hooves.H6536

32: Shall see [this]H7200 the humbleH6035 [and] be glad-H8055 you who seekH1875 GodH0430 and shall liveH2421 your hearts.H3824

33: ForH3588 hearsH8085 untoH0413 the poor,H0034 YahwehH3068 andH0853 His prisonersH0615 notH3808 does despise.H0959

34: Let praise HimH1984 heavenH8064 and earthH0776 the seas,H3220 and everythingH3605 that movesH7430
