Job 21:4

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

As for me, is my complaint to man? and if it were so, why should not my spirit be troubled?

“Therefore I will not restrain my mouth;
I will speak in the anguish of my spirit,
I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.

“

I loathe my own life;

I will give full vent to my complaint;
I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.

Do not consider your maidservant as a worthless woman, for I have spoken until now out of my great concern and provocation.”

For the choir director; upon Aijeleth Hashshahar. A Psalm of David.

My God, my God, why have You forsaken me?

Far from my deliverance are the words of my

groaning.

When I remember God, then I am disturbed;
When I sigh, then my spirit grows faint.

Selah.

A Prayer of the Afflicted when he is faint and pours out his complaint before the Lord.

Hear my prayer, O Lord!

And let my cry for help come to You.

Then He *said to them, “My soul is deeply grieved, to the point of death; remain here and keep watch with Me.”

As the king of Israel was passing by on the wall a woman cried out to him, saying, “Help, my lord, O king!”

Why are you in despair, O my soul?

And why have you become disturbed within me?

Hope in God, for I shall yet praise Him,

The help of my countenance and my God.
