Selah.46aHow long, O Yahweh?Will You hide Yourself forever?Will Your bwrath burn like fire?47aRemember 1what my span of life is;For what bvanity 2You have created all the sons of men!48What man can live and not asee death?Can he bprovide his soul escape from the 1power of Sheol? Selah.49Where are Your former lovingkindnesses, O Lord,Which You aswore to David in Your faithfulness?50Remember, O Lord, the areproach of Your 1slaves;2How I bear in my bosom the reproach of all the many peoples,51With which aYour enemies have reproached, O Yahweh,With which they have reproached the footsteps of bYour anointed.52aBlessed be Yahweh forever!Amen and Amen.
