Why standest thou afar off, O LORD? why hidest thou thyself in times of trouble?

My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?

But be not thou far from me, O LORD: O my strength, haste thee to help me.

O the hope of Israel, the saviour thereof in time of trouble, why shouldest thou be as a stranger in the land, and as a wayfaring man that turneth aside to tarry for a night?

Into thine hand I commit my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O LORD God of truth.

He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name.

Or, Deliver me from the enemy's hand? or, Redeem me from the hand of the mighty?

Were it not that I feared the wrath of the enemy, lest their adversaries should behave themselves strangely, and lest they should say, Our hand is high, and the LORD hath not done all this.

For the Canaanites and all the inhabitants of the land shall hear of it, and shall environ us round, and cut off our name from the earth: and what wilt thou do unto thy great name?
