Psalms 143:3

Lord, what is man, that thou art made known to him? or the son of man, that thou takest account of him?

For the enemy hath persecuted my soul; he hath smitten my life down to the ground; he hath made me to dwell in darkness, as those that have been long dead.

For the enemy pursues my soul. He has struck my life down to the ground. He has made me live in dark places, as those who have been long dead.
