Book 19 Psalms Chapter 038
| |
| 038:001 | O lord, rebuke me not in thy wrath: neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
|
| 038:002 | For thine arrows stick fast in me, and thy hand presseth me sore.
|
| 038:003 | There is no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither is there any rest in my bones because of my sin.
|
| 038:004 | For mine iniquities are gone over mine head: as an heavy burden they are too heavy for me.
|
| 038:005 | My wounds stink and are corrupt because of my foolishness.
|
| 038:006 | I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long.
|
| 038:007 | For my loins are filled with a loathsome disease: and there is no soundness in my flesh.
|
| 038:008 | I am feeble and sore broken: I have roared by reason of the disquietness of my heart.
|
| 038:009 | Lord, all my desire is before thee; and my groaning is not hid from thee.
|
| 038:010 | My heart panteth, my strength faileth me: as for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me.
|
| 038:011 | My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my sore; and my kinsmen stand afar off.
|
| 038:012 | They also that seek after my life lay snares for me: and they that seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and imagine deceits all the day long.
|
| 038:013 | But I, as a deaf man, heard not; and I was as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth.
|
| 038:014 | Thus I was as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no reproofs.
|
| 038:015 | For in thee, O LORD, do I hope: thou wilt hear, O Lord my God.
|
| 038:016 | For I said, Hear me, lest otherwise they should rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.
|
| 038:017 | For I am ready to halt, and my sorrow is continually before me.
|
| 038:018 | For I will declare mine iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin.
|
| 038:019 | But mine enemies are lively, and they are strong: and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied.
|
| 038:020 | They also that render evil for good are mine adversaries; because I follow the thing that good is.
|
| 038:021 | Forsake me not, O LORD: O my God, be not far from me.
|
| 038:022 | Make haste to help me, O Lord my salvation. |
