Psalm 38

New International Version NIV

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible RHE

1 (37-1) <A psalm for David, for a remembrance of the sabbath.> (37-2) Rebuke me not, O Lord, in thy indignation; nor chastise me in thy wrath.

2 (37-3) For thy arrows are fastened in me: and thy hand hath been strong upon me.

3 (37-4) There is no health in my flesh, because of thy wrath: there is no peace for my bones, because of my sins.

4 (37-5) For my iniquities are gone over my head: and as a heavy burden are become heavy upon me.

5 (37-6) My sores are putrefied and corrupted, because of my foolishness.

6 (37-7) I am become miserable, and am bowed down even to the end: I walked sorrowful all the day long.

7 (37-8) For my loins are filled with illusions; and there is no health in my flesh.

8 (37-9) I am afflicted and humbled exceedingly: I roared with the groaning of my heart.

9 (37-10) Lord, all my desire is before thee, and my groaning is not hidden from thee.

10 (37-11) My heart is troubled, my strength hath left me, and the light of my eyes itself is not with me.

11 (37-12) My friends and my neighbours have drawn near, and stood against me. And they that were near me stood afar off:

12 (37-13) And they that sought my soul used violence. And they that sought evils to me spoke vain things, and studied deceits all the day long.

13 (37-14) But I, as a deaf man, heard not: and as a dumb man not opening his mouth.

14 (37-15) And I became as a man that heareth not: and that hath no reproofs in his mouth.

15 (37-16) For in thee, O Lord, have I hoped: thou wilt hear me, O Lord my God.

16 (37-17) For I said: Lest at any time my enemies rejoice over me: and whilst my feet are moved, they speak great things against me.

17 (37-18) For I am ready for scourges: and my sorrow is continually before me.

18 (37-19) For I will declare my iniquity: and I will think of my sin.

19 (37-20) But my enemies live, and are stronger than I: and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied.

20 (37-21) They that render evil for good, have detracted me, because I followed goodness.

21 (37-22) For sake me not, O Lord my God: do not thou depart from me.

22 (37-23) Attend unto my help, O Lord, the God of my salvation.
