4 So my spirit grows faint within me;

my heart within me is dismayed.

4 Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me;

My heart within me is desolate.

4 I am losing all hope;

I am paralyzed with fear.

4 Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed within me;

My heart within me is distressed.

4 I am afraid;

my courage is gone.

4 Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me;

My heart within me is desolate.

4 And my spirit is overwhelmed within me; my heart within me is desolate.

4 That is why I begin to lose hope 

and my heart is in a state of shock. 

4 My spirit is weak within me;

my heart is overcome with dismay.

4 Therefore my spirit faints within me;

my heart within me is appalled.

4 And so my spirit grows faint within me;

my heart within me is desolate.

4 So I grow weak.

Deep down inside me, I’m afraid.

4 Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed within me;

My heart is appalled within me.
