38:1 O Jehovah, rebuke me not in thy wrath; Neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.

38:2 For thine arrows stick fast in me, And thy hand presseth me sore.

38:3 There is no soundness in my flesh because of thine indignation; Neither is there any health in my bones because of my sin.

38:4 For mine iniquities are gone over my head: As a heavy burden they are too heavy for me.

38:5 My wounds are loathsome and corrupt, Because of my foolishness.

38:6 I am pained and bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long.

38:7 For my loins are filled with burning; And there is no soundness in my flesh.

38:8 I am faint and sore bruised: I have groaned by reason of the disquietness of my heart.

38:9 Lord, all my desire is before thee; And my groaning is not hid from thee.

38:10 My heart throbbeth, my strength faileth me: As for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me.

38:11 My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my plague; And my kinsmen stand afar off.

38:12 They also that seek after my life lay snares `for me'; And they that seek my hurt speak mischievous things, And meditate deceits all the day long.

38:13 But I, as a deaf man, hear not; And I am as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth.

38:14 Yea, I am as a man that heareth not, And in whose mouth are no reproofs.

38:15 For in thee, O Jehovah, do I hope: Thou wilt answer, O Lord my God.

38:16 For I said, Lest they rejoice over me: When my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.

38:17 For I am ready to fall, And my sorrow is continually before me.

38:18 For I will declare mine iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin.

38:19 But mine enemies are lively, `and' are strong; And they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied.

38:20 They also that render evil for good Are adversaries unto me, because I follow the thing that is good.

38:21 Forsake me not, O Jehovah: O my God, be not far from me.

38:22 Make haste to help me, O Lord, my salvation. Psalm 39 For the Chief Musician, Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.
