Psalms 88:11-16
Is your loyal love proclaimed in the grave, or your faithfulness in the place of the dead?Are your amazing deeds experienced in the dark region, or your deliverance in the land of oblivion?As for me, I cry out to you, O LORD; in the morning my prayer confronts you.O LORD, why do you reject me, and pay no attention to me?I am oppressed and have been on the verge of death since my youth. I have been subjected to your horrors and am numb with pain.Your anger overwhelms me; your terrors destroy me.

Hosea 11:8-9
How can I give you up, O Ephraim? How can I surrender you, O Israel? How can I treat you like Admah? How can I make you like Zeboiim? I have had a change of heart! All my tender compassions are aroused!I cannot carry out my fierce anger! I cannot totally destroy Ephraim! Because I am God, and not man– the Holy One among you– I will not come in wrath!

Job 30:15-31
Terrors are turned loose on me; they drive away my honor like the wind, and like a cloud my deliverance has passed away.“ And now my soul pours itself out within me; days of suffering take hold of me.Night pierces my bones; my gnawing pains never cease.With great power God grasps my clothing; he binds me like the collar of my tunic.He has flung me into the mud, and I have come to resemble dust and ashes.I cry out to you, but you do not answer me; I stand up, and you only look at me.You have become cruel to me; with the strength of your hand you attack me.You pick me up on the wind and make me ride on it; you toss me about in the storm.I know that you are bringing me to death, to the meeting place for all the living.“ Surely one does not stretch out his hand against a broken man when he cries for help in his distress.Have I not wept for the unfortunate? Was not my soul grieved for the poor?But when I hoped for good, trouble came; when I expected light, then darkness came.My heart is in turmoil unceasingly; the days of my affliction confront me.I go about blackened, but not by the sun; in the assembly I stand up and cry for help.I have become a brother to jackals and a companion of ostriches.My skin has turned dark on me; my body is hot with fever.My harp is used for mourning and my flute for the sound of weeping.
