Psalm 55:2

Attend to me, and answer me; I am restless in my complaint and I moan,

Like a swallow or a crane I chirp; I moan like a dove. My eyes are weary with looking upward. O Lord, I am oppressed; be my pledge of safety!

We all growl like bears; we moan and moan like doves; we hope for justice, but there is none; for salvation, but it is far from us.

How long, O LORD? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?

For when I kept silent, my bones wasted away through my groaning all day long.

I am utterly bowed down and prostrate; all the day I go about mourning.

For you are the God in whom I take refuge; why have you rejected me? Why do I go about mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

Hear my voice, O God, in my complaint; preserve my life from dread of the enemy.

But truly God has listened; he has attended to the voice of my prayer.

When I remember God, I moan; when I meditate, my spirit faints. Selah

For I eat ashes like bread and mingle tears with my drink,
