CAPH. My soul fainteth for thy salvation: {but} I hope in thy word.
I have said to corruption, Thou {art} my father: to the worm, {Thou art} my mother, and my sister. {said: Heb. cried, or, called}
What {is} my strength, that I should hope? and what {is} mine end, that I should prolong my life?
Therefore now, O LORD, take, I beseech thee, my life from me; for {it is} better for me to die than to live.
And if thou deal thus with me, kill me, I pray thee, out of hand, if I have found favour in thy sight; and let me not see my wretchedness.
My soul is weary of my life; I will leave my complaint upon myself; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul. {weary...: or, cut off while I live}
