1. O Lord God of my saving health, I cry day and night before Thee;
2. let my prayer come before thee; incline thine ear unto my cry;
3. for my soul is full of troubles, and my life draws near unto Sheol.
4. I am counted with those that go down into the pit; I am as a man that has no strength:
5. Freed among the dead, like the slain that lie in the grave, whom thou dost remember no more; and they are cut off from thy hand.
6. Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in darkness, in the deeps.
