כִּֽי־לֹ֣א נִ֭צְמַתִּי מִפְּנֵי־חֹ֑שֶׁךְ וּ֝מִפָּנַ֗י כִּסָּה־אֹֽפֶל׃
因為我沒有在黑暗臨到之前被剪除，祂也沒有在我面前遮蔽幽暗。
Rashi
Because I was not cut off from before the darkness Because of this I am startled; because I was not completely cut off and laid permanently in the grave before this darkness that has come upon me, and because He did not cover this thick darkness from before me until my death.
Rashi
and [because He did not] cover the thick darkness from before me This refers back to “because not” at the beginning of the verse.
