|
1 |
O LORD, rebuke me
not in thy wrath: neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
|
|
|
2 |
For thine arrows
stick fast in me, and thy hand presseth me sore. |
|
3 |
There is no
soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither is there any rest in
my bones because of my sin.
|
|
4 |
For mine iniquities
are gone over mine head: as an heavy burden they are too heavy for me.
|
|
5 |
My wounds stink and
are corrupt because of my foolishness. |
|
6 |
I am troubled; I am
bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long.
|
|
7 |
For my loins are
filled with a loathsome disease: and there is no soundness in my flesh.
|
|
8 |
I am feeble and sore
broken: I have roared by reason of the disquietness of my heart.
|
|
9 |
Lord, all my desire
is before thee; and my groaning is not hid from thee.
|
|
10 |
My heart panteth, my
strength faileth me: as for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me.
|
|
11 |
My lovers and my
friends stand aloof from my sore; and my kinsmen stand afar off.
|
|
12 |
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.
|
|
13 |
But I, as a deaf
man, heard not; and I was as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth.
|
|
14 |
Thus I was as a man
that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no reproofs.
|
|
15 |
For in thee, O LORD,
do I hope: thou wilt hear, O Lord my God. |
|
16 |
For I said, Hear me,
lest otherwise they should rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they
magnify themselves against me.
|
|
17 |
For I am ready to
halt, and my sorrow is continually before me. |
|
18 |
For I will declare
mine iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin. |
|
19 |
But mine enemies are
lively, and they are strong: and they that hate me wrongfully are
multiplied.
|
|
20 |
They also that
render evil for good are mine adversaries; because I follow the thing that
good is.
|
|
21 |
Forsake me not, O
LORD: O my God, be not far from me. |
|
22 |
Make haste to help
me, O Lord my salvation. |
