A song of David for the day of remembrance. Lord, don't criticize me when you are angry. Don't discipline me in anger. |
2
|
You have hurt me. You punished me and hurt me deeply. |
3
|
You punished me severely, so my whole body is sore. I sinned, and now all my bones hurt. |
4
|
My guilt is like a heavy burden. I am sinking beneath its weight. |
5
|
I did a foolish thing, and now I have infected sores that stink. |
6
|
I am bent and bowed down. I am depressed all day long. |
7
|
I am burning with fever, and my whole body hurts. |
8
|
I hurt so much I cannot feel anything. My pounding heart makes me scream! |
9
|
My Lord, you heard my groaning. You can hear my sighs. |
10
|
My heart is pounding. My strength is gone, and I am going blind. |
11
|
Because of my sickness, my friends and neighbors will not visit me; my family will not come near me. |
12
|
My enemies say bad things about me. They are spreading lies and rumors. They talk about me all the time. |
13
|
But I am like a deaf man and cannot hear. I am like someone who cannot speak. |
14
|
I am like those who cannot hear what people are saying about them. I cannot answer to prove my enemies wrong. |
15
|
Lord, you must defend me. Lord my God, you must speak for me. |
16
|
That's why I prayed, "Don't let my enemies smile at my pain. Full of pride, they will laugh if I stumble and fall." |
17
|
I know I am guilty of doing wrong. I cannot forget my pain. |
18
|
Lord, I told you about the bad things I did. I am worried about my sins. |
19
|
But my enemies are alive and healthy, and they have told many lies. |
20
|
I did nothing but good, and they paid me back with evil. I try to do what is right, but that only makes them turn against me. |
21
|
Lord, don't leave me. My God, stay close to me. |
22
|
Come quickly and help me. My Lord, you are the one who saves me. |
