My intercessor is my friend as my eyes pour out tears to God;

My eyes have grown dim with grief; my whole frame is but a shadow.

I had heard of you by the hearing of the ear, but now my eye has seen you.

For I am ever aware of your faithfulness, and your loyalty continually motivates me.

Open my eyes so I can truly see the marvelous things in your law!

Turn my eyes away from what is worthless! Revive me with your word!

My eyes grow tired as I wait for your promise to be fulfilled. I say, “When will you comfort me?”

My eyes grow tired as I wait for your deliverance, for your reliable promise to be fulfilled.

My eyes anticipate the nighttime hours, so that I can meditate on your word.

ע (Ayin) Tears flow from my eyes and will not stop; there will be no break

What my eyes see grieves me – all the suffering of the daughters in my city.

For I see everything they do. Their wicked ways are not hidden from me. Their sin is not hidden away where I cannot see it.

“Then you told your servants, ‘Bring him down to me so I can see him.’

“Indeed, my eyes have seen all this, my ears have heard and understood it.

Surely mockery is with me; my eyes must dwell on their hostility.

My eyes grow dim from suffering; they grow weak because of all my enemies.

I will instruct and teach you about how you should live. I will advise you as I look you in the eye.

The Lord pays attention to the godly and hears their cry for help.

Surely he rescues me from all trouble, and I triumph over my enemies.

You held my eyelids open; I was troubled and could not speak.
