I am (A)weary with my crying; my throat is parched;
My (B)eyes fail while I wait for my God.
Those (C)who hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head;
Those who would [a]destroy me (D)are powerful, being wrongfully my enemies;
(E)What I did not steal, I then have to restore.

O God, it is You who knows (F)my folly,
And (G)my wrongs are not hidden from You.

I am worn out calling for help;(A)
    my throat is parched.
My eyes fail,(B)
    looking for my God.
Those who hate me(C) without reason(D)
    outnumber the hairs of my head;
many are my enemies without cause,(E)
    those who seek to destroy me.(F)
I am forced to restore
    what I did not steal.

You, God, know my folly;(G)
    my guilt is not hidden from you.(H)
