Your rage lies heavily on me.
    You make all your waves pound on me. Selah
You have taken my friends far away from me.
    You made me disgusting to them.
    I’m shut in, and I can’t get out.
        My eyes grow weak because of my suffering.
            All day long I call out to you, O Yahweh.
                I stretch out my hands to you in prayer.

Your wrath(A) lies heavily on me;
    you have overwhelmed me with all your waves.[a](B)
You have taken from me my closest friends(C)
    and have made me repulsive to them.
I am confined(D) and cannot escape;(E)
    my eyes(F) are dim with grief.

I call(G) to you, Lord, every day;
    I spread out my hands(H) to you.
