^{1 Ref} I will cry unto God with my voice, Even unto God with my voice; and he will give ear unto me.

^{2 Ref} In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord: My hand was stretched out in the night, and slacked not; My soul refused to be comforted.

^{3 Ref} I remember God, and am disquieted: I complain, and my spirit is overwhelmed. Selah

^{4 Ref} Thou holdest mine eyes watching: I am so troubled that I cannot speak.

^{5 Ref} I have considered the days of old, The years of ancient times.

^{6 Ref} I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own heart; And my spirit maketh diligent search.

^{7 Ref} Will the Lord cast off for ever? And will he be favorable no more?

^{8 Ref} Is his lovingkindness clean gone for ever? Doth his promise fail for evermore?

^{9 Ref} Hath God forgotten to be gracious? Hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies? Selah
