'Affliction' in the Bible

Favour me, O Jehovah, See mine affliction by those hating me, Thou who liftest me up from the gates of death,

For He hath not despised, nor abominated, The affliction of the afflicted, Nor hath He hidden His face from him, And in his crying unto Him He heareth.

See mine affliction and my misery, And bear with all my sins.

I rejoice, and am glad in Thy kindness, In that Thou hast seen mine affliction, Thou hast known in adversities my soul.

Mine eye hath grieved because of affliction, I called Thee, O Jehovah, all the day, I have spread out unto Thee my hands.

Inhabitants of dark places and death-shade, Prisoners of affliction and of iron,

And setteth on high the needy from affliction, And placeth families as a flock.

My soul hath dropped from affliction, Establish me according to Thy word.

This is my comfort in mine affliction, That Thy saying hath quickened me.

Unless Thy law were my delights, Then had I perished in mine affliction.

Resh. See my affliction, and deliver Thou me, For Thy law I have not forgotten.
