|
| Psalms 38:2 | (38:3) For Thine arrows are gone deep into me, and Thy hand is come down upon me.
|
| Psalms 38:3 | (38:4) There is no soundness in my flesh because of Thine indignation; neither is there any health in my bones because of my sin.
|
| Psalms 38:4 | (38:5) For mine iniquities are gone over my head; as a heavy burden they are too heavy for me.
|
| Psalms 38:5 | (38:6) My wounds are noisome, they fester, because of my foolishness.
|
| Psalms 38:6 | (38:7) I am bent and bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day.
|
| Psalms 38:7 | (38:8) For my loins are filled with burning; and there is no soundness in my flesh.
|
| Psalms 38:8 | (38:9) I am benumbed and sore crushed; I groan by reason of the moaning of my heart.
|
| Psalms 38:9 | (38:10) Lord, all my desire is before Thee; and my sighing is not hid from Thee.
|
| Psalms 38:10 | (38:11) My heart fluttereth, my strength faileth me; as for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me.
|
| Psalms 38:11 | (38:12) My friends and my companions stand aloof from my plague; and my kinsmen stand afar off.
|
| Psalms 38:12 | (38:13) They also that seek after my life lay snares for me; and they that seek my hurt speak crafty devices, and utter deceits all the day.
|
| Psalms 38:13 | (38:14) But I am as a deaf man, I hear not; and I am as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth.
|
| Psalms 38:14 | (38:15) Yea, I am become as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no arguments.
|
| Psalms 38:15 | (38:16) For in Thee, O LORD, do I hope; Thou wilt answer, O Lord my God.
|
| Psalms 38:16 | (38:17) For I said: 'Lest they rejoice over me; when my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.'
|
| Psalms 38:17 | (38:18) For I am ready to halt, and my pain is continually before me.
|
| Psalms 38:18 | (38:19) For I do declare mine iniquity; I am full of care because of my sin.
|
| Psalms 38:19 | (38:20) But mine enemies are strong in health; and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied.
|
| Psalms 38:20 | (38:21) They also that repay evil for good are adversaries unto me, because I follow the thing that is good.
|
| Psalms 38:21 | (38:22) Forsake me not, O LORD; O my God, be not far from me.
|
| Psalms 38:22 | (38:23) Make haste to help me, O Lord, my salvation.
