1. I cried unto God with my voice, even unto God with my voice; and he gave ear unto me.
2. In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord; my sore bled in the night and ceased not; my soul refused to be comforted.
3. I remembered God and cried out; I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. Selah.
4. Thou didst hold my eyelids open; I am broken and did not speak.
5. I have considered the days from the beginning, the years of the ages.
6. I call to remembrance my songs of the night; I commune with my own heart, and my spirit made diligent search.
7. Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be favourable no more?
