019:038:001
O lord,
rebuke me not in thy wrath:
neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.

019:038:002
For thine arrows stick fast in me,
and thy hand presseth me sore.

019:038:003
There is no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger;
neither is there any rest in my bones because of my sin.

019:038:004
For mine iniquities are gone over mine head:
as an heavy burden they are too heavy for me.

019:038:005
My wounds stink and are corrupt because of my foolishness.

019:038:006
I am troubled;
I am bowed down greatly;
I go mourning all the day long.

019:038:007
For my loins are filled with a loathsome disease:
and there is no soundness in my flesh.

019:038:008
I am feeble and sore broken:
I have roared by reason of the disquietness of my heart.

019:038:009
Lord,
all my desire is before thee;
and my groaning is not hid from thee.

019:038:010
My heart panteth,
my strength faileth me:
as for the light of mine eyes,
it also is gone from me.

019:038:011
My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my sore;
and my kinsmen stand afar off.

019:038:012
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.

019:038:013
But I,
as a deaf man,
heard not;
and I was as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth.

019:038:014
Thus I was as a man that heareth not,
and in whose mouth are no reproofs.

019:038:015
For in thee,
O LORD,
do I hope:
thou wilt hear,
O Lord my God.

019:038:016
For I said,
Hear me,
lest otherwise they should rejoice over me:
when my foot slippeth,
they magnify themselves against me.

019:038:017
For I am ready to halt,
and my sorrow is continually before me.

019:038:018
For I will declare mine iniquity;
I will be sorry for my sin.

019:038:019
But mine enemies are lively,
and they are strong:
and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied.

019:038:020
They also that render evil for good are mine adversaries;
because I follow the thing that good is.

019:038:021
Forsake me not,
O LORD:
O my God,
be not far from me.

019:038:022
Make haste to help me,
O Lord my salvation.
