11ListenH238 to my prayerH8605, O GodH430,and do notH408 ignoreH5956 my pleaH8467.2AttendH7181 to me and answer meH6030.I am restlessH7300 in my complaintH7879,and distraughtH1949 3at the voiceH6963 of the enemyH341,atH6440 the pressureH6125 of the wickedH7563.ForH3588 they bring downH4131 disasterH205 upon meH5921and resent meH7852 in their angerH639.
4My heartH3820 poundsH2342 within meH7130,and the terrorsH367 of deathH4194 assailH5307 meH5921.5FearH3374 and tremblingH7461 gripH935 me,and horrorH6427 has overwhelmed meH3680.6I saidH559, “OhH4310, thatH5414 I had wingsH83 like a doveH3123!I would fly awayH5774 and find restH7931.7HowH2009 far awayH7368 I would fleeH5074!In the wildernessH4057 I would remainH3885.SelahH55428I would hurryH2363 to my shelterH4655,far from this ragingH7307H5584 tempestH5591.”
