But you, O Lord - b how long?
4
Turn, O Lord, deliver my life;
save me for the sake of your steadfast love.
5

in Sheol who will give you praise?
6
I am d weary with my e moaning;
every night I flood my bed with tears;
I drench my couch with my weeping.
7
My f eye wastes away because of grief;
it grows weak because of all my foes.
8
g Depart from me, all you h workers of evil,
for the Lord i has heard the sound of my weeping.
9
The Lord has heard my j plea;
the Lord accepts my prayer.
10
All my enemies shall be ashamed and greatly troubled;
they shall k turn back and be put to shame in a moment.
