- Hear my prayer, O LORD; let my cry for help come to you.
- Do not hide your face from me when I am in distress. Turn your ear to me; when I call, answer me quickly.
- For my days vanish like smoke; my bones burn like glowing embers.
- My heart is blighted and withered like grass; I forget to eat my food.
- Because of my loud groaning I am reduced to skin and bones.

- Hear my prayer, O LORD! And let my cry for help come to You.
- Do not hide Your face from me in the day of my distress; Incline Your ear to me; In the day when I call answer me quickly.
- For my days have been consumed in smoke, And my bones have been scorched like a hearth.
- My heart has been smitten like grass and has withered away, Indeed, I forget to eat my bread.
- Because of the loudness of my groaning My bones cling to my flesh.
