| Psalms 38: (YLT) |
| 1) A Psalm of David, 'To cause to remember.' Jehovah, in Thy wrath reprove me not, Nor in Thy fury chastise me. |
| 2) For Thine arrows have come down on me, And Thou lettest down upon me Thy hand. |
| 3) Soundness is not in my flesh, Because of Thine indignation, Peace is not in my bones because of my sin. |
| 4) For mine iniquities have passed over my head, As a heavy burden -- too heavy for me. |
| 5) Stunk -- become corrupt have my wounds, Because of my folly. |
| 6) I have been bent down, I have been bowed down -- unto excess, All the day I have gone mourning. |
| 7) For my flanks have been full of drought, And soundness is not in my flesh. |
| 8) I have been feeble and smitten -- unto excess, I have roared from disquietude of heart. |
| 9) Lord, before Thee [is] all my desire, And my sighing from Thee hath not been hid. |
| 10) My heart [is] panting, my power hath forsaken me, And the light of mine eyes, Even they are not with me. |
| 11) My lovers and my friends over-against my plague stand. And my neighbours afar off have stood. |
| 12) And those seeking my soul lay a snare, And those seeking my evil Have spoken mischievous things, And they do deceits meditate all the day. |
| 13) And I, as deaf, hear not. And as a dumb one who openeth not his mouth. |
| 14) Yea, I am as a man who heareth not, And in his mouth are no reproofs. |
| 15) Because for Thee, O Jehovah, I have waited, Thou dost answer, O Lord my God. |
| 16) When I said, 'Lest they rejoice over me, In the slipping of my foot against me they magnified themselves. |
| 17) For I am ready to halt, And my pain [is] before me continually. |
| 18) For mine iniquity I declare, I am sorry for my sin. |
| 19) And mine enemies [are] lively, They have been strong, and those hating me without cause, Have been multiplied. |
| 20) And those paying evil for good accuse me, Because of my pursuing good. |
| 21) Do not forsake me, O Jehovah, My God, be not far from me, |
| 22) Haste to help me, O Lord, my salvation! |
