1A Song or Psalm for the sons of Korah. To the chief Musician upon Mahalath Leannoth, Maschil of Heman the Ezrahite. O Lord God of my salvation, I have cried day and night before thee:
2Let my prayer come before thee: Incline thine ear unto my cry;
3For my soul is full of troubles: And my life draweth nigh unto the grave.
4I am counted with them that go down into the pit: I am as a man that hath no strength:
