< Psalms 38 >
1 A psalm of David to make remembrance. O Yahweh may not in anger your you rebuke me and in wrath your may you chasten me.
2 For arrows your they have penetrated me and it has come down on me hand your.
3 There not [is] soundness in flesh my because of indignation your there not [is] health in bones my because of sin my.
4 For iniquities my they have passed over head my like a burden heavy they are [too] heavy for me.
5 They stink they fester wounds my because of folly my.
6 I am bent down I am bent over up to muchness all the day mourning I have gone about.
7 For loins my they are full burning [pain] and there not [is] soundness in flesh my.
8 I am numb and I am crushed up to muchness I roar from [the] groaning of heart my.
9 O Lord [is] before you all desire my and sighing my from you not it is hidden.
10 Heart my it palpitates it has left me strength my and [the] light of eyes my also they not [are] with me.
11 Friends my - and companions my from before plague my they stand and kinsmen my from a distance they have stood.
12 And they set traps - [those who] seek life my and [those who] seek harm my they have spoken destruction and deceit all the day they devise.
13 And I [am] like a deaf [person] not I hear and like a dumb [person] [who] not he opens mouth his.
14 And I have become like a man who not [is] hearing and there not in mouth his [are] arguments.
15 For for you O Yahweh I have waited you you will answer O Lord God my.
16 For I said lest they should rejoice to me when slips foot my on me they magnified themselves.
17 For I for stumbling [am] prepared and pain my [is] before me continually.
18 For iniquity my I tell I am anxious from sin my.
19 And enemies my life they are numerous and they are many [those who] hate me falsehood.
20 And [those who] repay evil in place of good they accuse me in place of (pursuing my *Q(k)*) good.
21 May not you forsake me O Yahweh O God my may not you be distant from me.
22 Make haste! to help my O Lord salvation my.
