Psalm 38

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.

New Revised Standard NRS

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

2 For your arrows have sunk into me, and your hand has come down on me.

3 There is no soundness in my flesh because of your indignation; there is no health in my bones because of my sin.

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

5 My wounds grow foul and fester because of my foolishness;

6 I am utterly bowed down and prostrate; all day long I go around mourning.

7 For my loins are filled with burning, and there is no soundness in my flesh.

8 I am utterly spent and crushed; I groan because of the tumult of my heart.

9 O Lord, all my longing is known to you; my sighing is not hidden from you.

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

11 My friends and companions stand aloof from my affliction, and my neighbors stand far off.

12 Those who seek my life lay their snares; those who seek to hurt me speak of ruin, and meditate treachery all day long.

13 But I am like the deaf, I do not hear; like the mute, who cannot speak.

14 Truly, I am like one who does not hear, and in whose mouth is no retort.

15 But it is for you, O Lord, that I wait; it is you, O Lord my God, who will answer.

16 For I pray, "Only do not let them rejoice over me, those who boast against me when my foot slips."

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

18 I confess my iniquity; I am sorry for my sin.

19 Those who are my foes without cause are mighty, and many are those who hate me wrongfully.

20 Those who render me evil for good are my adversaries because I follow after good.

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

22 make haste to help me, O Lord, my salvation.
