I remembered God, and rejoiced; I poured out my complaint, and my soul fainted. Pause.

I am poor and in troubles from my youth; and having been exalted, I was brought low and into despair.

Penetrate my flesh with Your fear; for I am afraid of Your judgments.

ZAIN. I remembered by reason of my poverty, and because of persecution my bitterness and gall shall be remembered;

and my soul shall meditate with me.

I watched, and my belly trembled at the sound of the prayer of my lips, and trembling entered into my bones, and my frame was troubled within me; I will rest in the day of affliction, from going up to the people of my sojourning.
