Psalms:38:1 @
Unto the end ,
for Idithun himself ,
a canticle of David .
drb @
Psalms:38:2 @
I said :
I will take heed to my ways :
that I sin not with my tongue .
I have set guard to my mouth ,
when the sinner stood against me .
drb @
Psalms:38:3 @
I was dumb ,
and was humbled ,
and kept silence from good things :
and my sorrow was renewed .
drb @
Psalms:38:4 @
My heart grew hot within me :
and in my meditation a fire shall flame out .
drb @
Psalms:38:5 @
I spoke with my tongue :
O Lord ,
make me know my end .
And what is the number of my days :
that I may know what is wanting to me .
drb @
Psalms:38:6 @
Behold thou hast made my days measurable :
and my substance is as nothing before thee .
And indeed all things are vanity :
every man living .
drb @
Psalms:38:7 @
Surely man passeth as an image :
yea ,
and he is disquieted in vain .
He storeth up :
and he knoweth not for whom he shall gather these things .
drb @
Psalms:38:8 @
And now what is my hope ?
is it not the Lord ?
and my substance is with thee .
drb @
Psalms:38:9 @
Deliver thou me from all my iniquities :
thou hast made me a reproach to the fool .
drb @
Psalms:38:10 @
I was dumb ,
and I opened not my mouth ,
because thou hast done it .
drb @
Psalms:38:11 @
Remove thy scourges from me .
The strength of thy hand hath made me faint in rebukes :
drb @
Psalms:38:12 @
thou hast corrected man for iniquity .
And thou hast made his soul to waste away like a spider :
surely in vain is any man disquieted .
drb @
Psalms:38:13 @
Hear my prayer ,
O Lord ,
and my supplication :
give ear to my tears .
Be not silent :
for I am a stranger with thee ,
and a sojourner as all my fathers were .
drb @
Psalms:38:14 @
O forgive me ,
that I may be refreshed ,
before I go hence ,
and be no more .
