Psalms 13:1-2

Psalm 13

For the music director; a psalm of David.

13:1 How long, Lord, will you continue to ignore me?

How long will you pay no attention to me?

13:2 How long must I worry,

and suffer in broad daylight?

How long will my enemy gloat over me?

Psalms 32:3

32:3 When I refused to confess my sin,

my whole body wasted away,

while I groaned in pain all day long.

Psalms 38:6

38:6 I am dazed and completely humiliated;

all day long I walk around mourning.

Psalms 43:2

43:2 For you are the God who shelters me.

Why do you reject me?

Why must I walk around mourning

because my enemies oppress me?

Psalms 102:9-10

102:9 For I eat ashes as if they were bread,

and mix my drink with my tears,

102:10 because of your anger and raging fury.

Indeed, you pick me up and throw me away.

Isaiah 38:14

38:14 Like a swallow or a thrush I chirp,

I coo like a dove;

my eyes grow tired from looking up to the sky.

O sovereign master, I am oppressed;

help me!
