Why H4100 is light H216 given H5414 to him that is in misery, H6001 and life H2416 to the bitter H4751 in soul; H5315

Which rejoice H8055 exceedingly, H413 H1524 and are glad, H7797 when H3588 they can find H4672 the grave? H6913

Oh that I might have H935 my request; H7596 and that God H433 would grant H5414 me the thing that I long H8615 for!

Even that it would please H2974 God H433 to destroy H1792 me; that he would let loose H5425 his hand, H3027 and cut H1214 me off!

But he saves H3467 the poor H34 from the sword, H2719 from their mouth, H6310 and from the hand H3027 of the mighty. H2389

So the poor H1800 has H1961 hope, H8615 and iniquity H5766 stops H7092 her mouth. H6310

In famine H7458 he shall redeem H6299 you from death: H4194 and in war H4421 from the power H3027 of the sword. H2719

Though I were perfect, H8535 yet would I not know H3045 my soul: H5315 I would despise H3988 my life. H2416

O that you would hide H6845 me in the grave, H7585 that you would keep me secret, H5641 until H5704 your wrath H639 be past, H7725 that you would appoint H7896 me a set H2706 time, and remember H2142 me!

And if H518 you deal H6213 thus H3602 with me, kill H2026 me, I pray H4994 you, out of hand, H2026 if H518 I have found H4672 favor H2580 in your sight; H5869 and let me not see H7200 my wretchedness. H7451

But he himself H1931 went H1980 a day's H3117 journey H1870 into the wilderness, H4057 and came H935 and sat H3427 down under H8478 a juniper H7574 tree: and he requested H7592 for himself H5315 that he might die; H4191 and said, H559 It is enough; H7227 now, H6258 O LORD, H3068 take H3947 away my life; H5315 for I am not better H2896 than my fathers. H1

Therefore now, H6258 O LORD, H3068 take, H3947 I beseech H4994 you, my life H5315 from me; for it is better H2896 for me to die H4194 than to live. H2416

And it came H1961 to pass, when the sun H8121 did arise, H2224 that God H430 prepared H4487 a vehement H2759 east H6921 wind; H7307 and the sun H8121 beat H5221 on the head H7218 of Jonah, H3124 that he fainted, H5968 and wished H7592 in himself to die, H4191 and said, H559 It is better H2896 for me to die H4191 than to live. H2416

Therefore H1571 I will not refrain H2820 my mouth; H6310 I will speak H1696 in the anguish H6862 of my spirit; H7307 I will complain H7878 in the bitterness H4751 of my soul. H5315

And be it indeed H551 that I have erred, H7683 my error H4879 remains H3885 with myself.

Hear H8085 diligently my speech, H4405 and let this H2063 be your consolations. H8575

As for me, is my complaint H7879 to man? H120 and if H518 it were so, why H4069 should not my spirit H7307 be troubled? H7114

If H518 I be wicked, H7561 woe H480 to me; and if H518 I be righteous, H6663 yet will I not lift H5375 up my head. H7218 I am full H7646 of confusion; H7036 therefore see H7200 you my affliction; H6040

For it increases. H1342 You hunt H6679 me as a fierce H7826 lion: H7826 and again H7725 you show yourself marvelous H6381 on me.

Oh H3863 that my grief H3708 were thoroughly weighed, H8254 and my calamity H1942 laid H5375 in the balances H3976 together! H3162

For the arrows H2671 of the Almighty H7706 are within H5978 me, the poison H2534 whereof H834 drinks H8354 up my spirit: H7307 the terrors H1161 of God H433 do set themselves in array H6186 against me.

Therefore H1571 I will not refrain H2820 my mouth; H6310 I will speak H1696 in the anguish H6862 of my spirit; H7307 I will complain H7878 in the bitterness H4751 of my soul. H5315

Though H518 I speak, H1696 my grief H3511 is not assuaged: H2820 and though I forbear, H2308 what H4100 am I eased? H1980

And you have filled H7059 me with wrinkles, H7059 which is a witness H5707 against me: and my leanness H3585 rising H6965 up in me bears H6030 witness H6030 to my face. H6440

They have gaped H6473 on me with their mouth; H6310 they have smitten H5221 me on the cheek H3895 reproachfully; H2781 they have gathered H4390 themselves together H3162 against H5921 me.

I was at ease, H7961 but he has broken H6565 me asunder: he has also taken H247 me by my neck, H6203 and shaken H6327 me to pieces, and set H6965 me up for his mark. H4307

He breaks H6555 me with breach H6556 on breach, H6556 he runs H7323 on me like a giant. H1368

My face H6440 is foul H2560 with weeping, H1065 and on H5921 my eyelids H6079 is the shadow H6757 of death; H6757

When H3588 I kept H2790 silence, H2790 my bones H6106 waxed old H1086 through my roaring H7581 all H3605 the day H3117 long.

I acknowledge H3045 my sin H2403 to you, and my iniquity H5771 have I not hid. H3680 I said, H559 I will confess H3034 my transgressions H6588 to the LORD; H3068 and you forgave H5375 the iniquity H5771 of my sin. H2403 Selah. H5542

What H4100 shall I say? H1696 he has both spoken H559 to me, and himself H1931 has done H6213 it: I shall go H1718 softly all H3605 my years H8141 in the bitterness H4751 of my soul. H5315

Behold, H2009 for peace H7965 I had great bitterness: H4843 but you have in love H2836 to my soul H5315 delivered it from the pit H7845 of corruption: H1097 for you have cast H7993 all H3605 my sins H2399 behind H310 your back. H1458
