Psalm 141:7–8

7 As when one plows and breaks up the earth,

so shall our bones be scattered at the mouth of Sheol.

8 But my eyes are toward you, O God, my Lord;

in you I seek refuge; leave me not defenseless!

7 Our bones are scattered at the grave’s mouth,

As when one cutteth and cleaveth wood upon the earth.

8 But mine eyes are unto thee, O God the Lord:

In thee is my trust; leave not my soul destitute.

7 Like rocks brought up by a plow,

the bones of the wicked will lie scattered without burial.

8 I look to you for help, O Sovereign Lord.

You are my refuge; don’t let them kill me.

7 Our bones are scattered at the mouth of the grave,

As when one plows and breaks up the earth.

8 But my eyes are upon You, O God the Lord;

In You I take refuge;

Do not leave my soul destitute.

7 “The ground is plowed and broken up.

In the same way, our bones have been scattered at the grave.”

8 God, I look to you for help.

I trust in you, Lord. Don’t let me die.

7 As when one ploweth and cleaveth the earth,

Our bones are scattered at the mouth of Sheol.

8 For mine eyes are unto thee, O Jehovah the Lord:

In thee do I take refuge; leave not my soul destitute.

7 Our bones are scattered at the mouth of Sheol, as when one cutteth and cleaveth wood upon the earth. 8 For unto thee, Jehovah, Lord, are mine eyes; in thee do I trust: leave not my soul destitute.

7 As someone plows and breaks up the ground, 

so our bones will be planted at the mouth of the grave. 

8 My eyes look to you, Lord Almighty. 

I have taken refuge in you. 

Do not leave me defenseless. 

7 As when one plows and breaks up the soil,

turning up rocks,

so our bones have been scattered

at the mouth of Sheol.

8 But my eyes look to You, Lord God.

I seek refuge in You; do not let me die.

7 Like a rock that one breaks apart and shatters on the land,

so shall their bones be strewn at the mouth of Sheol.

8 But my eyes are turned toward you, O God, my Lord;

in you I seek refuge; do not leave me defenseless.

7 As when one plows and breaks up the earth,

so our bones are scattered at the mouth of Sheol.

8 But my eyes are toward you, O Yahweh, my Lord;

I have taken refuge in you. Do not lay bare my soul.

7 They will say, “As clumps of dirt are left from plowing up the ground,

so our bones will be scattered near an open grave.”

8 But Lord and King, I keep looking to you.

I go to you for safety. Don’t let me die.

7 As when one plows and breaks open the earth,

Our bones have been scattered at the mouth of Sheol.

8 For my eyes are toward You, O God, the Lord;

In You I take refuge; do not leave me defenseless.
