“ 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 I might have my request, that God would grant my desire.

If only my request would be granted and God would provide what I hope for:

“ 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!

If only my request would be granted and God would provide what I hope for:

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

“ Oh that my request would be realized, and that God would grant me what I long for!

What is my strength, that I should wait? What is my end, that I should be patient?Is my strength the strength of stones? Or is my flesh of bronze?Isn’t it that I have no help in me, That wisdom is driven quite from me?

My soul faints for your salvation. I hope in your word.

if I have said to corruption,‘ You are my father;’ to the worm,‘ My mother,’ and‘ My sister,’where then is my hope? as for my hope, who will see it?Shall it go down with me to the gates of Sheol, or descend together into the dust?”
