⁴ I am counted among those who go down to the pit;^(A)
    I am like one without strength.^(B)
5 I am set apart with the dead,
    like the slain who lie in the grave,
whom you remember no more,
    who are cut off^(C) from your care.

⁶ You have put me in the lowest pit,
    in the darkest depths.^(D)
7 Your wrath^(E) lies heavily on me;
    you have overwhelmed me with all your waves.^[a](F)
8 You have taken from me my closest friends^(G)
    and have made me repulsive to them.
I am confined^(H) and cannot escape;^(I)
9     my eyes^(J) are dim with grief.

I call^(K) to you, Lord, every day;
    I spread out my hands^(L) to you.
¹⁰ Do you show your wonders to the dead?
    Do their spirits rise up and praise you?^(M)
