“Would He not let my few days alone,
Withdraw from me that I may have a little cheer
²¹ 
Before I go—and I shall not return—
To the land of darkness and the deep shadow [of death],
²² 
The [sunless] land of utter gloom as darkness itself,
[The land] of the shadow of death, without order,
And [where] it shines as [thick] darkness.”
