I am abandoned among the dead;
    I am like the slain lying in their graves,
those you have forgotten completely,
    who are beyond your help.
You have thrown me into the depths of the tomb,
    into the darkest and deepest pit.
Your anger lies heavy on me,
    and I am crushed beneath its waves.

I am set apart with the dead,
    like the slain who lie in the grave,
whom you remember no more,
    who are cut off(A) from your care.

You have put me in the lowest pit,
    in the darkest depths.(B)
Your wrath(C) lies heavily on me;
    you have overwhelmed me with all your waves.[a](D)
