Wilt thou hide

To the Overseer, on 'The Hind of the Morning.' -- A Psalm of David. My God, my God, why hast Thou forsaken me? Far from my salvation, The words of my roaring?

and Mine anger hath burned against it in that day, and I have forsaken them, and hidden My face from them, and it hath been for consumption, and many evils and distresses have found it, and it hath said in that day, Is it not because that my God is not in my midst -- these evils have found me?

Why dost Thou hide Thy face? And reckonest me for an enemy to Thee?

But your iniquities have been separating Between you and your God, And your sins have hidden The Presence from you -- from hearing.
