Translationyou have set my feet in a large place./ Have mercy on me lord because I am afflicted: my eye is thrown into confusion with wrath: my soul and my belly./ Because my life is failed for sorrow:/ and my years in groanings./ My strength is weakened for poverty:/ and my bones are diseased./ I am made a disgrace to all my enemies:/ greatly to my neighbours and a fear to my acquaintance./ They that saw me outside fled from me:/ I am given to oblivion from the heart as one dead./ I am made like a vessel destroyed: because I have heard/ the blame of many that dwell round about./ In that while they assembled together against me:/ they consulted to take away my soul./ But I have put my trust in you lord: I said you are my god:/ in your hands are my fates. Deliver me out of the hands of my enemies:/ and from them that persecute me./ Make your face bright upon your servant:/ save me in your mercy/ lord let me not be thrown into disorder because I have called upon you./ |
