In the day of my trouble I seek the Lord;
in the night my hand is stretched out without wearying;
my soul refuses to be comforted.
Despite all the blessings I have been given, I continue to worry and fret.
My soul refuses to be comforted.
The Hebrew for this comfort is נָחַם or nacham.
This means to be comforted, consoled, to have compassion.
It also means to regret or repent. Perhaps comfort depends on repentance.
Psalm 77
