My soul also is sore troubled; but LORD, how long wilt thou punish me?
{To the Chanter, a Psalm of David} How long wilt thou forget me, O LORD? Forever? How long wilt thou hide thy face from me?
LORD, how long wilt thou look upon this? O deliver my soul from the calamities which they bring on me, and my darling from the lions.
LORD, how long wilt thou be angry? Shall thy jealousy burn like fire forever?
O LORD, how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear? How long shall I complain unto thee, suffering wrong, and thou wilt not help?
Then the LORD's angel gave answer, and said, 'O LORD of Hosts, how long wilt thou be unmerciful to Jerusalem and to the cities of Judah, with whom thou hast been displeased now these seventy years?'
