Psalms 143:4 - Compare All Versions

Share

The enemy hunted me down; he kicked me and stomped me within an inch of my life. He put me in a black hole, buried me like a corpse in that dungeon. I sat there in despair, my spirit draining away, my heart heavy, like lead. I remembered the old days, went over all you’ve done, pondered the ways you’ve worked, Stretched out my hands to you, as thirsty for you as a desert thirsty for rain.

Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me; My heart within me is desolate.

Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed within me; My heart is appalled within me.

I am afraid; my courage is gone.

Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me; My heart within me is desolate.

So my spirit grows faint within me; my heart within me is dismayed.

Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed within me; My heart within me is distressed.

Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed and weak within me [wrapped in darkness]; My heart grows numb within me.

I am losing all hope; I am paralyzed with fear.

My inner being is in depression and my heart is heavy, dazed with despair.

Therefore my spirit faints within me; my heart within me is appalled.
