1 A Psalm of David,
to bring to remembrance. ¶ 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 presses 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 my iniquities are gone over my head; as a 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 roar 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 pants, my strength fails me; as for the light of my eyes, it also is gone from me. 11 My friends and my companions stand aloof from my sore, and my kinsmen stand afar off. 12 ¶ Those that seek after my life lay snares for me, and those that seek my hurt speak calamities and imagine deceits all the day long. 13 But I, as a deaf man, that heard not, and as a dumb man that did not open his mouth. 14 Thus I was as a man that does not hear, and in whose mouth are no reproofs. 15 For thee, O LORD, do I wait; thou wilt respond, O Lord my God. 16 For I said, Let them not rejoice over me; let them not magnify themselves against me when my foot slips. 17 For I am ready to halt, and my sorrow is continually before me. 18 Therefore I will declare my iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin. 19 For my enemies are alive, and they are strong, and those that hate me wrongfully are multiplied; 20 rendering evil for good they are against me because I follow that which is good. 21 Forsake me not, O LORD; O my God, be not far from me. 22 Make haste to help me, O Lord my salvation.
