38 And you you have spurned and you have rejected you have been furious with anointed your.

46 Until when? O Yahweh will you hide yourself? to perpetuity will it burn? like a fire anger your.
How long, Jehovah, wilt thou hide thyself for ever? shall thy fury burn like fire?
47 Remember I what? [is] lifespan concerning what? emptiness have you created all [the] children of humankind.
Remember, as regards me, what life is. Wherefore hast thou created all the children of men to be vanity?

What man liveth, and shall not see death? Shall he deliver his soul from the power of Sheol? (Selah) (Sheol h7585)
49 Where? - [are] covenant loyalti your former - O Lord [which] you swore an oath to David in faithfulness your.
Where, Lord, are thy former loving-kindnesses, [which] thou swarest unto David in thy faithfulness?

Remember, Lord, the reproach of thy servants — that I bear in my bosom [that of] all the mighty peoples —
51 Which they have reproached enemies your - O Yahweh which they have reproached [the] footprints of anointed your.

52 [be] blessed Yahweh for ever amen - and amen.
Blessed be Jehovah for evermore! Amen, and Amen.
