“ Oh, that I might have my request, that God would grant what I hope for,

“ I wish I could have what I’m asking for! I wish God would give me what I’m hoping for!

“ Oh that I might have my request, and that God would fulfill my hope,

“ Oh, that my request might come to pass, And that God would grant my hope!

“ Oh, that I might have my request, That God would grant me the thing that I long for!

Oh that I might have my request; And that God would grant me the thing that I long for!

What[ is] my strength, that I should hope? and what[ is] mine end, that I should prolong my life?[ Is] my strength the strength of stones? or[ is] my flesh of brass?[ Is] not my help in me? and is wisdom driven quite from me?

CAPH. My soul fainteth for thy salvation:[ but] I hope in thy word.

I have said to corruption, Thou[ art] my father: to the worm,[ Thou art] my mother, and my sister.And where[ is] now my hope? as for my hope, who shall see it?They shall go down to the bars of the pit, when[ our] rest together[ is] in the dust.
