⁸ though ^(A)I call and cry for help,
    he shuts out my prayer;

² O my God, I cry by ^(A)day, but you do not answer,
    and by night, but I find no rest.

²⁰ I cry to you for help and you do not answer me;
    I stand, and you only look at me.

⁷ Behold, I ^(A)cry out, ‘Violence!’ but I am not answered;
    I call for help, but there is no justice.

² O Lord, ^(A)how long shall I cry for help,
    and you will not hear?
Or cry to you ^(B)“Violence!”
    and you will not save?

^44 (A)you have wrapped yourself with a cloud
    so that no prayer can pass through.
