An Appeal for Revelation
I will complain without restraint;3
I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.
Footnotes
- 1 The Hebrew has נַפְשִׁי (nafshi), usually rendered “my soul.”
- 2 The verb is pointed like a Qal form but is originally a Niphal from קוּט (qut). Some wish to connect the word to Akkadian cognates for a meaning “I am in anguish”; but the meaning “I am weary” fits the passage well.
- 3 The verb עָזַב (’azav) means “to abandon.” It may have an extended meaning of “to let go” or “to let slip.” But the expression “abandon to myself” means to abandon all restraint and give free course to the complaint.
