They have heard - that, sighing am, I, and am saying - There is none to comfort me, All my foes, - having heard of my calamity - have rejoiced, because, thou, hast done it, - thou hast brought in the day thou didst proclaim, So let them become like me.

Let all their wickedness, come in, before thee, and deal thou severely with them, according as thou hast dealt severely with me, for all my transgressions; for many are my sighs, and, my heart, is sick.

Yahweh hath done what he thought, hath carried out his word, wherewith he gave charge in the days of old, hath thrown down, and not spared, - Thus hath he let the enemy rejoice over thee, hath raised high the horn of thine adversaries.

Their heart, hath made outcry, unto My Lord, - O wall of the daughter of Zion - Let tears run down as a torrent day and night, Do not give thyself relief, Let not the weeping of thine eye cease!

Let him sit alone, and keep silence, because he took it upon himself:

Let him put, in the dust, his mouth, peradventure, there is hope!

Let him give, to him that smiteth him, his cheek, let him be sated with reproach.

Why should a living son of earth complain, Let a man complain because of his sins?

Let us search out our ways, and examine them well, and let us return unto Yahweh;

Let us lift up our heart, to the opened palms, to the Mighty One in the heavens;
