Then we Your people, the sheep of Your pasture, will thank You forever; from generation to generation we will declare Your praise.

A song. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. For the choirmaster. According to Mahalath Leannoth. A Maskil of Heman the Ezrahite. O LORD, the God of my salvation, day and night I cry out before You.

May my prayer come before You; incline Your ear to my cry.

I am forsaken among the dead, like the slain who lie in the grave, whom You remember no more, who are cut off from Your care.

You have laid me in the lowest Pit, in the darkest of the depths.

You have removed my friends from me; You have made me repulsive to them; I am confined and cannot escape.
