'Moan' in the Bible
Why are you in despair, O my soul?And why have you become restless and disturbed within me?Hope in God and wait expectantly for Him, for I shall again praise HimFor the help of His presence.
Why are you in despair, O my soul?Why have you become restless and disquieted within me?Hope in God and wait expectantly for Him, for I shall yet praise Him,The help of my countenance and my God.
Why are you in despair, O my soul?And why are you restless and disturbed within me?Hope in God and wait expectantly for Him, for I shall again praise Him,The help of my [sad] countenance and my God.
Listen to me and answer me;I am restless and distraught in my complaint and distracted
Evening and morning and at noon I will complain and murmur,And He will hear my voice.
“Like a swallow, like a crane, so I chirp;I coo like a dove.My eyes look wistfully upward;O Lord, I am oppressed, take my side and be my security.
We all groan and growl like bears,And coo sadly like doves;We hope for justice, but there is none,For salvation, but it is far from us.
