Nor in hot displeasure chastise me, O Yah.

Be gracious, Yah, and show me Your mercy.
Heal me, O Yah, for I languish and ache.

O YAHWEH, how long are You in helping !
Turn, O Yah, and save me; deliver my soul;

For Your great love; for the sake of Your mercies.
For in the grave there is no thought of You.

O YAHWEH, my bed is wet with weeping,
And I faint with moaning because of my foes.

But Yah has heard ; He has answered my prayer.
My foes shall turn and shall be ashamed.
