ESVEnglish Standard Version

my soul is bereft of peace;

I have forgotten what happiness is;

so I say, “My endurance has perished;

so has my hope from the Lord.”

I have forgotten what prosperity is.

So I say, “My splendor is gone

and all that I had hoped from the Lord.”

CSBChristian Standard Bible

I have been deprived of peace;

I have forgotten what prosperity is.

Then I thought, “My future is lost,

as well as my hope from the Lord.”

Peace has been stripped away,

and I have forgotten what prosperity is.

I cry out, “My splendor is gone!

Everything I had hoped for from the Lord is lost!”

I have forgotten goodness.

And I have said, “My glory is ruined,

my expectation from Yahweh.”
