¹² Hear my prayer, O Jehovah, And `to' my cry give ear, Unto my tear be not silent, For a sojourner I `am' with Thee, A settler like all my fathers.

¹¹ Beloved, I call upon `you', as strangers and sojourners, to keep from the fleshly desires, that war against the soul,

¹³ In faith died all these, not having received the promises, but from afar having seen them, and having been persuaded, and having saluted `them', and having confessed that strangers and sojourners they are upon the earth,

⁹ And Jacob saith unto Pharaoh, `The days of the years of my sojournings `are' an hundred and thirty years; few and evil have been the days of the years of my life, and they have not reached the days of the years of the life of my fathers, in the days of their sojournings.'

¹⁹ A sojourner I `am' on earth, Hide not from me Thy commands.

¹⁵ for sojourners we `are' before Thee, and settlers, like all our fathers; as a shadow `are' our days on the land, and there is none abiding.

²³ `And the land is not sold -- to extinction, for the land `is' Mine, for sojourners and settlers `are' ye with Me;

⁸ My wandering Thou hast counted, Thou -- place Thou my tear in Thy bottle, Are they not in Thy book?

⁵ `Turn back, and thou hast said unto Hezekiah, leader of My people: Thus said Jehovah, God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tear, lo, I give healing to thee, on the third day thou dost go up to the house of Jehovah;

¹⁷ and if on the Father ye do call, who without acceptance of persons is judging according to the work of each, in fear the time of your sojourn pass ye,

⁷ who in the days of his flesh both prayers and supplications unto Him who was able to save him from death -- with strong crying and tears -- having offered up, and having been heard in respect to that which he feared,

⁶ having courage, then, at all times, and knowing that being at home in the body, we are away from home from the Lord, --

⁵⁴ Songs have been to me Thy statutes, In the house of my sojournings.

³ Compassed me have cords of death, And straits of Sheol have found me, Distress and sorrow I find.

¹ A Prayer of the afflicted when he is feeble, and before Jehovah poureth out his plaint. O Jehovah, hear my prayer, yea, my cry to Thee cometh.

²⁰ My interpreter `is' my friend, Unto God hath mine eye dropped:

¹² it may be Jehovah doth look on mine affliction, and Jehovah hath turned back to me good for his reviling this day.'
