Psalm 38 - A Psalm of David,
to bring to remembrance.

O Lord, rebuke me not in thy wrath:
neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.

For thine arrows stick fast in
me, and thy hand presseth me sore.

There is no soundness in my flesh because
of thine 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 disquietness of my heart.

Lord, all my desire is before thee;
and my groaning is not hid from thee.

My heart panteth, my strength
faileth 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 afar 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 openeth not his mouth.

Thus I was as a man that heareth not,
and in whose mouth are no reproofs.

For in thee, O Lord, do I hope:
thou wilt hear, O Lord my God.

For I said, Hear me, lest otherwise
they should rejoice over me:

when my foot slippeth, 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.
