2Have pity on me, Lord, for I am weak; *
heal me, Lord, for my bones are racked.

3My spirit shakes with terror; *
how long, O Lord, how long?

4Turn, O Lord, and deliver me; *
save me for your mercy’s sake.

5For in death no one remembers you; *
and who will give you thanks in the grave?

6I grow weary because of my groaning; *
every night I drench my bed
and flood my couch with tears.

7My eyes are wasted with grief *
and worn away because of all my enemies.

8Depart from me, all evildoers, *
for the Lord has heard the sound of my weeping.

9The Lord has heard my supplication; *
the Lord accepts my prayer.

10All my enemies shall be confounded and quake with fear; *
they shall turn back and suddenly be put to shame.

7Domine, Deus meus

1O Lord my God, I take refuge in you; *
save and deliver me from all who pursue me;

2Lest like a lion they tear me in pieces *
and snatch me away with none to deliver me.

3O Lord my God, if I have done these things: *
if there is any wickedness in my hands,
