38:1  <A Psalm. Of David. To keep in memory.> O Lord, be not bitter with me in your wrath; let not your hand be on me in the heat of your passion.
38:2  For your arrows have gone into my flesh, and I am crushed under the weight of your hand.
38:3  My flesh is wasted because of your wrath; and there is no peace in my bones because of my sin.
38:4  For my crimes have gone over my head; they are like a great weight which is more than my strength.
38:5  My wounds are poisoned and evil-smelling, because of my foolish behaviour.
38:6  I am troubled, I am made low; I go weeping all the day.
38:7  For my body is full of burning; all my flesh is unhealthy.
38:8  I am feeble and crushed down; I gave a cry like a lion because of the grief in my heart.
38:9  Lord, all my desire is before you; my sorrow is not kept secret from you.
38:10  My heart goes out in pain, my strength is wasting away; as for the light of my eyes, it is gone from me.
38:11  My lovers and my friends keep away from my disease; my relations keep far away.
38:12  Those who have a desire to take my life put nets for me; those who are designing my destruction say evil things against me, all the day their minds are full of deceit.
38:13  But I kept my ears shut like a man without hearing; like a man without a voice, never opening his mouth.
38:14  So I was like a man whose ears are shut, and in whose mouth there are no sharp words.
38:15  In you, O Lord, is my hope: you will give me an answer, O Lord, my God.
38:16  I said, Let them not be glad over me; when my foot is moved, let them not be lifted up with pride against me.
38:17  My feet are near to falling, and my sorrow is ever before me.
38:18  I will make clear my wrongdoing, with sorrow in my heart for my sin.
38:19  But they are strong who have hate for me without cause: those who are against me falsely are increased in numbers.
38:20  They give me back evil for good; they are my haters because I go after the thing which is right.
38:21  Do not give me up, O Lord; O my God, be near to me.
38:22  Come quickly to give me help, O Lord, my salvation.
