My soul faints for Your salvation; I have hoped in Your words.

For I have become as a bottle in the frost; [yet] I have not forgotten Your statutes.

Therefore my spirit was grieved in me; my heart was troubled within me.

I spread forth my hands to You; my soul [thirsts] for You, as a dry land. Pause.

My heart wanders, and transgression overwhelms me; my soul is occupied with fear.

My eye is troubled because of my wrath; I am worn out because of all my enemies.

I am weary [of] crying, my throat has become hoarse; my eyes have failed by my waiting on my God.

My eyes are dimmed from poverty; but I cried out to You, O Lord, all the day; I spread forth my hands to You.

My eyes have failed for Your salvation, and for the word of Your righteousness.

CHAPH. My eyes have failed with tears, my heart is troubled, my glory is cast down to the ground, for the destruction of the daughter of my people; while the infant and suckling swoon in the streets of the city.

The crown has fallen from our head: yea, woe to us! For we have sinned.

For this has grief come; our heart is sorrowful: for this our eyes are darkened.
