They have opened their mouth against me; they have smitten me upon the cheek reproachfully; they have gathered themselves together against me. God has delivered me unto the liar, and in the hands of the wicked he has caused me to tremble.

His archers compassed me round about; he cleaved my kidneys asunder and did not spare; he poured out my gall upon the ground. He broke me with breach upon breach; he ran upon me like a giant. I have sewn sackcloth upon my skin and put dust over my head. My face is foul with weeping, and on my eyelids is the shadow of death,

The waters compassed me about, even to the soul, the depth closed me round about; the weeds were wrapped about my head. I descended to the roots of the mountains; the earth put her bars about me for ever; yet thou hast brought up my life out of the grave, O LORD my God. When my soul fainted within me, I remembered the LORD, and my prayer entered in unto thee in thy holy temple. Those that observe lying vanities forsake his mercy. But I will sacrifice unto thee with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay that which I have vowed; that saving comes of the LORD.
