Psalms 77:3-9
I remembered God, and was troubled; I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. SelahYou hold my eyelids open; I am so troubled that I cannot speak.I have considered the days of old, The years of ancient times.I call to remembrance my song in the night; I meditate within my heart, And my spirit makes diligent search.Will the Lord cast off forever? And will He be favorable no more?Has His mercy ceased forever? Has His promise failed forevermore?Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has He in anger shut up His tender mercies? Selah

My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me? Why are You so far from helping Me, And from the words of My groaning?O My God, I cry in the daytime, but You do not hear; And in the night season, and am not silent.But You are holy, Enthroned in the praises of Israel.

Job 7:11-21
“ Therefore I will not restrain my mouth; I will speak in the anguish of my spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.Am I a sea, or a sea serpent, That You set a guard over me?When I say,‘ My bed will comfort me, My couch will ease my complaint,’Then You scare me with dreams And terrify me with visions,So that my soul chooses strangling And death rather than my body.I loathe my life; I would not live forever. Let me alone, For my days are but a breath.“ What is man, that You should exalt him, That You should set Your heart on him,That You should visit him every morning, And test him every moment?How long? Will You not look away from me, And let me alone till I swallow my saliva?Have I sinned? What have I done to You, O watcher of men? Why have You set me as Your target, So that I am a burden to myself?Why then do You not pardon my transgression, And take away my iniquity? For now I will lie down in the dust, And You will seek me diligently, But I will no longer be.”
