Psalms 38

1 LORD, do not rebuke me in your anger or discipline me in your wrath.

1 A Psalm of David. To bring to remembrance. O Lord, do not rebuke me in Your wrath, Nor chasten me in Your hot displeasure!

2 Your arrows have pierced me, and your hand has come down on me.

2 For Your arrows pierce me deeply, And Your hand presses me down.

3 Because of your wrath there is no health in my body; there is no soundness in my bones because of my sin.

3 There is no soundness in my flesh Because of Your anger, Nor any health in my bones Because of my sin.

4 My guilt has overwhelmed me like a burden too heavy to bear.

4 For my iniquities have gone over my head; Like a heavy burden they are too heavy for me.

5 My wounds fester and are loathsome because of my sinful folly.

5 My wounds are foul and festering Because of my foolishness.

6 I am bowed down and brought very low; all day long I go about mourning.

6 I am troubled, I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long.

7 My back is filled with searing pain; there is no health in my body.

7 For my loins are full of inflammation, And there is no soundness in my flesh.

8 I am feeble and utterly crushed; I groan in anguish of heart.

8 I am feeble and severely broken; I groan because of the turmoil of my heart.

9 All my longings lie open before you, Lord; my sighing is not hidden from you.

9 Lord, all my desire is before You; And my sighing is not hidden from You.

10 My heart pounds, my strength fails me; even the light has gone from my eyes.

10 My heart pants, my strength fails me; As for the light of my eyes, it also has gone from me.

11 My friends and companions avoid me because of my wounds; my neighbors stay far away.

11 My loved ones and my friends stand aloof from my plague, And my relatives stand afar off.

12 Those who want to kill me set their traps, those who would harm me talk of my ruin; all day long they scheme and lie.

12 Those also who seek my life lay snares for me; Those who seek my hurt speak of destruction, And plan deception all the day long.

13 I am like the deaf, who cannot hear, like the mute, who cannot speak;

13 But I, like a deaf man, do not hear; And I am like a mute who does not open his mouth.

14 I have become like one who does not hear, whose mouth can offer no reply.

14 Thus I am like a man who does not hear, And in whose mouth is no response.

15 LORD, I wait for you; you will answer, Lord my God.

15 For in You, O Lord, I hope; You will hear, O Lord my God.

16 For I said, “Do not let them gloat or exalt themselves over me when my feet slip.”

16 For I said, "Hear me, lest they rejoice over me, Lest, when my foot slips, they exalt themselves against me."

17 For I am about to fall, and my pain is ever with me.

17 For I am ready to fall, And my sorrow is continually before me.

18 I confess my iniquity; I am troubled by my sin.

18 For I will declare my iniquity; I will be in anguish over my sin.

19 Many have become my enemies without cause ; those who hate me without reason are numerous.

19 But my enemies are vigorous, and they are strong; And those who hate me wrongfully have multiplied.

20 Those who repay my good with evil lodge accusations against me, though I seek only to do what is good.

20 Those also who render evil for good, They are my adversaries, because I follow what is good.

21 LORD, do not forsake me; do not be far from me, my God.

21 Do not forsake me, O Lord; O my God, be not far from me!

22 Come quickly to help me, my Lord and my Savior.

22 Make haste to help me, O Lord, my salvation!
