Psalm 31:9-11
Modern English Version
Psalm 31:9-11
Modern English Version
9 Be gracious to me, O Lord, for I am in trouble;
my eye wastes away with grief,
yes, my soul and my body.
10 For my life is spent with grief,
and my years with sighing;
my strength fails because of my iniquity,
and my bones waste away.
11 I became a reproach among all my enemies,
but especially among my neighbors,
and a dread to my acquaintances;
those who saw me outside fled from me.
Psalm 31:9-11

my strength fails(F) because of my affliction,[a](G)
and my bones grow weak.(H)
11 Because of all my enemies,(I)
I am the utter contempt(J) of my neighbors(K)
and an object of dread to my closest friends—
