³ Look attentively; Answer me, O Jehovah, my God, Enlighten mine eyes, lest I sleep in death,

³⁹ In their heat I make their banquets, And I have caused them to drink, so that they exult, And have slept a sleep age-during, And awake not -- an affirmation of Jehovah.

⁸ `And now, as a small moment hath grace been from Jehovah our God, to leave to us an escape, and to give to us a nail in His holy place, by our God's enlightening our eyes, and by giving us a little quickening in our servitude;

¹⁹ See my enemies, for they have been many, And with violent hatred they have hated me.

¹³ Favour me, O Jehovah, See mine affliction by those hating me, Thou who liftest me up from the gates of death,
