A Psalm of David; to bring to remembrance and make memorial. O LORD, rebuke me not in Your wrath, neither chasten me in Your hot displeasure. |
2
|
For Your arrows have sunk into me and stick fast, and Your hand has come down upon me and pressed me sorely. |
3
|
There is no soundness in my flesh because of Your indignation; neither is there any health or rest in my bones because of my sin. |
4
|
For my iniquities have gone over my head [like waves of a flood]; as a heavy burden they weigh too much for me. |
5
|
My wounds are loathsome and corrupt because of my foolishness. |
6
|
I am bent and bowed down greatly; I go about mourning all the day long. |
7
|
For my loins are filled with burning; and there is no soundness in my flesh. |
8
|
I am faint and sorely bruised [deadly cold and quite worn out]; I groan by reason of the disquiet and moaning of my heart. |
9
|
Lord, all my desire is before You; and my sighing is not hidden from You. |
10
|
My heart throbs, my strength fails me; as for the light of my eyes, it also is gone from me. |
11
|
My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my plague; and my neighbors and my near ones stand afar off. [Luke 23:49.] |
12
|
They also that seek and demand my life lay snares for me, and they that seek and require my hurt speak crafty and mischievous things; they meditate treachery and deceit all the day long. |
13
|
But I, like a deaf man, hear not; and I am like a dumb man who opens not his mouth. |
14
|
Yes, I have become like a man who hears not, in whose mouth are no arguments or replies. |
15
|
For in You, O Lord, do I hope; You will answer, O Lord my God. |
16
|
For I pray, Let them not rejoice over me, who when my foot slips boast against me. |
17
|
For I am ready to halt and fall; my pain and sorrow are continually before me. |
18
|
For I do confess my guilt and iniquity; I am filled with sorrow for my sin. [II Cor. 7:9, 10.] |
19
|
But my enemies are vigorous and strong, and those who hate me wrongfully are multiplied. |
20
|
They also that render evil for good are adversaries to me, because I follow the thing that is good. |
21
|
Forsake me not, O Lord; O my God, be not far from me. |
22
|
Make haste to help me, O Lord, my Salvation. |
