Psa Psalms, psalm Book of Psalms, psalm 38
A Psalm of David, to make memorial. O LORD, rebuke me not in Thine anger; neither chasten me in Thy wrath. Psa 6:1; Jer 10:24For Thine arrows are gone deep into me, and Thy hand is come down upon me. Deu 32:23; Job 6:4There is no soundness in my flesh because of Thine indignation; neither is there any health in my bones because of my sin. For mine iniquities are gone over my head; as a heavy burden they are too heavy for me. Psa 32:4; Ezk 33:10My wounds are noisome, they fester, because of my foolishness. I am bent and bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day. Psa 42:9For my loins are filled with burning; and there is no soundness in my flesh. I am benumbed and sore crushed; I groan by reason of the moaning of my heart. Lord, all my desire is before Thee; and my sighing is not hid from Thee. My heart fluttereth, my strength faileth me; as for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me. My friends and my companions stand aloof from my plague; and my kinsmen stand afar off. Job 19:13; Job 30:10; Psa 31:11They also that seek after my life lay snares for me; and they that seek my hurt speak crafty devices, and utter deceits all the day. But I am as a deaf man, I hear not; and I am as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth. Isa 53:7Yea, I am become as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no arguments. For in Thee, O LORD, do I hope; Thou wilt answer, O Lord my God. For I said: 'Lest they rejoice over me; when my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.' For I am ready to halt, and my pain is continually before me. For I do declare mine iniquity; I am full of care because of my sin. Psa 32:5But mine enemies are strong in health; and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied. They also that repay evil for good are adversaries unto me, because I follow the thing that is good. Psa 109:5Forsake me not, O LORD; O my God, be not far from me. Make haste to help me, O LORD, my salvation.
