Psalms Chapter 38 (KJV)
undefined
O LORD, rebuke me not in thy wrath: neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
undefined
For thine arrows stick fast in me, and thy hand presseth me sore.
undefined
There is no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither is there any rest in my bones because of my sin.
undefined
For mine iniquities are gone over mine head: as an heavy burden they are too heavy for me.
undefined
My wounds stink and are corrupt because of my foolishness.
undefined
I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long.
undefined
For my loins are filled with a loathsome disease: and there is no soundness in my flesh.
undefined
I am feeble and sore broken: I have roared by reason of the disquietness of my heart.
undefined
Lord, all my desire is before thee; and my groaning is not hid from thee.
undefined
My heart panteth, my strength faileth me: as for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me.
undefined
My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my sore; and my kinsmen stand afar off.
undefined
They also that seek after my life lay snares for me: and they that seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and imagine deceits all the day long.
undefined
But I, as a deaf man, heard not; and I was as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth.
undefined
Thus I was as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no reproofs.
undefined
For in thee, O LORD, do I hope: thou wilt hear, O Lord my God.
undefined
For I said, Hear me, lest otherwise they should rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.
undefined
For I am ready to halt, and my sorrow is continually before me.
undefined
For I will declare mine iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin.
undefined
But mine enemies are lively, and they are strong: and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied.
undefined
They also that render evil for good are mine adversaries; because I follow the thing that good is.
undefined
Forsake me not, O LORD: O my God, be not far from me.
undefined
Make haste to help me, O Lord my salvation.
