Psalm 38
38:1 A psalm of David , written to get God’s attention . O Lord , do not continue to rebuke me in your anger ! Do not continue to punish me in your raging fury !
38:2 For your arrows pierce me, and your hand presses me down .
38:3 My whole body is sick because of your judgment ; I am deprived of health because of my sin .
38:4 For my sins overwhelm me; like a heavy load , they are too much for me to bear.
38:5 My wounds are infected and starting to smell , because of my foolish sins .
