(Psa 38:1) O Lord, rebuke me not in thy wrath: neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
(Psa 38:2) For thine arrows stick fast in me, and thy hand presseth me sore.
(Psa 38:3) {There is} no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither {is there any} rest in my bones because of my sin.
(Psa 38:4) For mine iniquities are gone over mine head: as an heavy burden they are too heavy for me.
(Psa 38:5) My wounds stink {and} are corrupt because of my foolishness.
(Psa 38:6) I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long.
(Psa 38:7) For my loins are filled with a loathsome {disease}: and {there is} no soundness in my flesh.
(Psa 38:8) I am feeble and sore broken: I have roared by reason of the disquietness of my heart.
(Psa 38:9) Lord, all my desire {is} before thee; and my groaning is not hid from thee.
(Psa 38:10) My heart panteth, my strength faileth me: as for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me.
(Psa 38:11) My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my sore; and my kinsmen stand afar off.
(Psa 38:12) 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.
(Psa 38:13) But I, as a deaf {man}, heard not; and {I was} as a dumb man {that} openeth not his mouth.
(Psa 38:14) Thus I was as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth {are} no reproofs.
(Psa 38:15) For in thee, O Lord, do I hope: thou wilt hear, O Lord my God.
(Psa 38:16) For I said, {Hear me}, lest {otherwise} they should rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they magnify {themselves} against me.
(Psa 38:17) For I {am} ready to halt, and my sorrow {is} continually before me.
(Psa 38:18) For I will declare mine iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin.
(Psa 38:19) But mine enemies {are} lively, {and} they are strong: and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied.
(Psa 38:20) They also that render evil for good are mine adversaries; because I follow {the thing that} good {is}.
(Psa 38:21) Forsake me not, O Lord: O my God, be not far from me.
(Psa 38:22) Make haste to help me, O Lord my salvation.
