Have mercy on me,(A) Lord, for I am faint;(B)
    heal me,(C) Lord, for my bones are in agony.(D)
My soul is in deep anguish.(E)
    How long,(F) Lord, how long?

Turn,(G) Lord, and deliver me;
    save me because of your unfailing love.(H)
Among the dead no one proclaims your name.
    Who praises you from the grave?(I)

I am worn out(J) from my groaning.(K)

All night long I flood my bed with weeping(L)
    and drench my couch with tears.(M)
My eyes grow weak(N) with sorrow;
    they fail because of all my foes.
