Psalm 31:9

Have mercy on me, Yahweh, for I am in distress. My eye, my soul, and my body waste away with grief.

Yahweh, don't rebuke me in your anger, neither discipline me in your wrath.

I am poured out like water. All my bones are out of joint. My heart is like wax; it is melted within me.

Yahweh, don't rebuke me in your wrath, neither chasten me in your hot displeasure.

which my lips promised, and my mouth spoke, when I was in distress.

For all day long have I been plagued, and punished every morning.

For my soul is full of troubles. My life draws near to Sheol.

My eyes are dim from grief. I have called on you daily, Yahweh. I have spread out my hands to you.

For my days consume away like smoke. My bones are burned as a torch.

Some sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound in affliction and iron,

Our eyes do yet fail [in looking] for our vain help: In our watching we have watched for a nation that could not save.

For this our heart is faint; For these things our eyes are dim;
