11. Do those who are dead speak about your love? Do those who are in the grave tell how faithful you are?
12. Are your miracles known in that dark place? Are your holy acts known in that land where the dead are forgotten?
13. Lord, I cry out to you for help. In the morning I pray to you.
14. Lord, why do you say no to me? Why do you turn your face away from me?
15. I've been in pain ever since I was young. I've been close to death. You have made me suffer terrible things. I have lost all hope.
16. Your burning anger has swept over me. Your terrors have destroyed me.
17. All day long they surround me like a flood. They have closed in all around me.
