I am weary in my groaning; all the night I make my bed swim; I melt my couch with my tears.

My tears have been my food day and night, while they say to me all the day, Where is your God?

And in the daytime He led them with a cloud, and all the night with a light of fire.

You make darkness, and it is night, in which all the beasts of the forest creep forth.

A Song of degrees. Behold, bless Jehovah, all servants of Jehovah, who stand by night in the house of Jehovah.

Day to day pours forth speech, and night to night reveals knowledge.
