Psalms:38

Seeker Overlay ON

* O lord , rebuke me not in your wrath : neither chasten me in your hot displeasure . * For yours arrows stick fast in me , and your hand presses me sore . * There is no soundness in my flesh because of yours anger ; neither is there any rest in my bones because of my sin . * For mine iniquities are gone over mine head : as an heavy burden they are too heavy for me . * My wounds stink and are corrupt because of my foolishness . * I am troubled ; I am bowed down greatly ; I go mourning all the day long . * For my loins are filled with a loathsome disease : and there is no soundness in my flesh . * I am feeble and sore broken : I have roared by reason of the chaos of my heart . * Lord , all my desire is before you ; and my groaning is not hid from you . * My heart pants , my strength fails me : as for the light of mine eyes , it also is gone from me . * My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my sore ; and my kinsmen stand far off . * 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 . * But I , as a deaf man , heard not ; and I was as a dumb man that opens not his mouth . * Thus I was as a man that hears not , and in whose mouth are no reproofs . * For in you , O LORD , do I hope : you will hear , O Lord my God . * For I said , Hear me , lest otherwise they should rejoice over me : when my foot slips , they magnify themselves against me . * For I am ready to halt , and my sorrow is continually before me . * For I will declare mine iniquity ; I will be sorry for my sin . * But mine enemies are lively , and they are strong : and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied . * They also that render evil for good are mine adversaries ; because I follow the thing that good is . * Forsake me not , O LORD : O my God , be not far from me . * Make haste to help me , O Lord my salvation .
