1 I am the gabar (man) that raah (see / saw) seen inay (affliction) by the shabat (rod) of his ibarah (wrath).
2 He has nahag (led) me and yalak (caused) me to walk in chashak (darkness), and not in awar (light).
3 Surely against me he shawab (turn) his yad (hand) again and again all the yawam (day).
4 My bashar (flesh) and my iwar (skin) has he balah (made) old; he has shabar (broken) my itzam (bones).
5 He has banah (build) against me, and surrounded me with raash (head) and thalaah (travail).
6 He has yashab (inhabit/dwell) me to dwell in machashak (dark) places, as those that have been iwalam (eternity) mawath (death).
7 He has walled me about, that I can't yatzaa (go out / come out) forth; he has made my nachashath (chain) kabad (heavy).
8 Yes, when I zaiq (cry), and zaiq (call) for help, he satham (shuts) out my thapalah (prayer).
9 He has walled up my darak (ways) with cut gazayath (stone); he has made my nathayab (paths) iwah (crooked).
10 He is to me as a dab (bear) lying in arab (wait), as a aray (lion) in masathar (secret) places.
11 He has sawar (turned) aside my darak (ways), and pashach (pulled) me in pieces; he has shawam (place / establish / appoint) me shamam (desolate).
12 He has bent his qashath (bow), and natzab (set) me as a mataraa (mark) for the chatz (arrow).
13 He has caused the shafts of his ashapah (quiver) to bawaa (bring) into my kalayah (kidneys).
14 I am become a shachawaq (laughter/joking matter) to all my im (nation / people), and their nagayanah (song) all the yawam (day).
15 He shabai (has) filled me with marar (bitterness), he has sated me with lainah (wormwood).
16 He has also garas (broken) my shan (teeth) with chatzatz (gravel) stones; he has kapash (covered) me with ashes.
17 You have zanach (removed) my napash (soul) zanach (far) off from shalawam (peace / safety); I nashah (forgot) tawab (good / proper function).
18 I amar (spoke), “My natzach (strength) is abad (destroy / perish), and my expectation from Yahawah ().”
19 Zakar (remember) my inay (affliction) and my marawad (misery), the lainah (wormwood) and the raash (head).
20 My napash (soul) still remembers them, and is shawach (bowed) down within me.
21 This I shawab (turn) to my lab (heart); therefore yachal (have) I hope.
22 It is because of Yahawah () chasad (grace) kindnesses that we are not thamam (consumed), because his racham (show mercy / love) doesn't kalah (complete / finish).
23 They are chadash (new) every baqar (morning); rab (great) is your amawanah (faithfulness).
24 “Yahawah () is my chalaq (portion),” amar (spoke) my napash (soul); “therefore will I yachal (hope) in him.”
25 Yahawah () is tawab (good / proper function) to those who qawah (gather/wait) for him, to the napash (soul) that darash (seeks) him.
26 It is tawab (good / proper function) that a man yachayal (should) hope and dawamam (quietly) wait for the thashawaih (deliverance) of Yahawah ().
27 It is tawab (good / proper function) for a gabar (man) that he nashaa (lift) the il (over) in his naiwar (youth).
28 Let him yashab (inhabit/dwell) badad (alone) and damam (keep) silence, because he has laid it on him.
29 Let him put his pah (mouth) in the ipar (dust), if so be there yash (may) be thaqawah (hope).
30 Nathan (give) him give his lachay (cheek) to him who nakah (strikes) him; let him be shabai (filled) full with charapah (reproach).
31 For the Adanay () will not zanach (cast) off iwalam (forever).
32 For though he yagah (cause) grief, yet he will racham (show mercy / love) compassion according to the rab (multitude) of his chasad (grace) kindnesses.
33 For he does not inah (answer / respond) lab (heart), nor yagah (grieve) the banay (my son) of ayash (man / husband).
34 To dakaa (crush) under ragal (feet / foot) all the asayaray (prisoners) of the aratz (Earth/land),
35 To natah (turn) aside the mashapat (right) of a gabar (man) before the panayam (face) of the Most ilayawan (Most High),
36 To iwath (subvert) a adam (man) in his rayab (cause), the Adanay () doesn't raah (see).
37 Who is he who amar (spoke), and it comes to pass, when the Adanay () doesn't tzawah (command) it?
38 Doesn't rai (evil) and tawab (good / proper function) yatzaa (go out / come out) out of the pah (mouth) of the Most ilayawan (Most High)?
39 Why does a chay (life) adam (man) anan (complain), a gabar (man) for the punishment of his chataa (sins)?
40 Let us chapash (search) and chaqar (try) our darak (ways), and shawab (turn back / repent) again to Yahawah ().
41 Let us nashaa (lift) up our labab (heart) with our kapayam (hands) to Al in the shamayam (Shamayam / Heavens).
42 “We have pashai (transgressed) and have marah (rebelled); you have not salach (forgive/pardon/make clean).
43 “You have sakak (covered) with ap (nostril / picture: bull snorting) and radap (pursued) us; you have harag (kill), you chamal (have) not pitied.
44 You have sakak (covered) yourself with a inan (cloud), so that no thapalah (prayer) can ibar (pass over/through) through.
45 You have shawam (place / establish / appoint) us an sachay (off-scouring) and maawas (refuse) in the qarab (among / near) of the imayam (peoples).
46 “All our ayab (enemy) have patzah (opened) their pah (mouth) wide against us.
47 Pachad (fear / dread) and the pachath (pit) have come on us, devastation and shabar (destruction).”
48 My iyan (eye) yarad (runs) down with palagay (streams) of mayam (Waters), for the shabar (destruction) of the banath (daughter) of my im (nation / people).
49 My iyan (eye) nagar (pours) down, and doesn't damah (cease), without any hapagah (intermission),
50 Until Yahawah () shaqap (look) down, and raah (see) from shamayam (Shamayam / Heavens).
51 My iyan (eye) ilal (affects) my napash (soul), because of all the banawath (daughters) of my iyar (city).
52 They have tzawad (chased) me relentlessly like a tzapawar (bird), those who are my ayab (enemy) chanam (without) cause.
53 They have tzamath (cut) off my chay (life) in the bawar (dungeon), and have yadah (cast) a aban (stone) on me.
54 Mayam (Waters) tzawap (flowed) over my raash (head); I amar (said), “I am gazar (cut) off.”
55 I qaraa (called) on your sham (name), Yahawah (), out of the lowest bawar (dungeon).
56 You shamai (hearken / hear) my qawal (sound / voice); “don't ilam (hide) your azan (ear) at my rawachah (breathing), at my cry.”
57 You qarab (come close) near in the yawam (day) that I qaraa (called) on you; you amar (said), “Don't be yaraa (fear / be afraid).”
58 Adanay (), you have rayab (pleaded) the rayabay (causes) of my napash (soul); you have gaal (redeemed) my chay (life).
59 Yahawah (), you raah (see) seen my iwathah (wrong). Shapat (judge / judgement) my cause.
60 You raah (see / saw) seen all their naqamah (vengeance) and all their machashabah (devices) against me.
61 You have shamai (hearken / hear) their charapah (reproach), Yahawah (), and all their machashabah (devices) against me,
62 The shapathay (lips) of those that qawam (rise up) up against me, and their hagayawan (device) against me all the yawam (day).
63 You nabat (see) their sitting down, and their qayamah (rising) up; I am their song.
64 You will shawab (turn back / repent) to them a gamawal (recompense), Yahawah (), according to the maishah (work) of their yad (hand).
65 You will nathan (give) them hardness of lab (heart), your thaalah (curse) to them.
66 You will radap (pursue) them in ap (nostril / picture: bull snorting), and shamad (destroy) them from under the shamay (heavens) of Yahawah ().
