2 for you(m. s.) God security my to/for what? to reject me to/for what? be dark to go: went in/on/with oppression enemy
You are God, the one who protects me; (why have you abandoned me?/it seems that you have abandoned me!) [RHQ] It does not seem right that [RHQ] I am forced to mourn/cry constantly because my enemies are cruel to me.
