12. Are your amazing deeds experienced in the dark region,or your deliverance in the land of oblivion?
13. As for me, I cry out to you, O Lord;in the morning my prayer confronts you.
14. O Lord, why do you reject me,and pay no attention to me?
15. I am oppressed and have been on the verge of death since my youth.I have been subjected to your horrors and am numb with pain.
16. Your anger overwhelms me;your terrors destroy me.
17. They surround me like water all day long;they join forces and encircle me.
18. You cause my friends and neighbors to keep their distance;those who know me leave me alone in the darkness.
