Psalms 38:1-22

38:1

<
<A Psalm <04210>

of David
<01732>_,

to bring to remembrance
<02142> (8687).>>

O LORD
<03068>_,

rebuke
<03198> (8686)

me not in thy wrath
<07110>_:

neither chasten
<03256> (8762)

me in thy hot displeasure
<02534>_.

38:2

For thine arrows
<02671>

stick fast
<05181> (8738)

in me, and thy hand
<03027>

presseth me sore
<05181> (8799)_.

38:3

[There is] no soundness
<04974>

in my flesh
<01320>

because
<06440>

of thine anger
<02195>_;

neither [is there any] rest
<07965>

in my bones
<06106>

because
<06440>

of my sin
<02403>_.

{rest: Heb. peace, or, health}

38:4

For mine iniquities
<05771>

are gone over
<05674> (8804)

mine head
<07218>_:

as an heavy
<03515>

burden
<04853>

they are too heavy
<03513> (8799)

for me.

38:5

My wounds
<02250>

stink
<0887> (8689)

[and] are corrupt
<04743> (8738)

because
<06440>

of my foolishness
<0200>_.

38:6

I am troubled
<05753> (8738)_;

I am bowed down
<07817> (8804)

greatly
<03966>_;

I go
<01980> (8765)

mourning
<06937> (8802)

all the day
<03117>

long. {troubled: Heb. wried}

38:7

For my loins
<03689>

are filled
<04390> (8804)

with a loathsome
<07033> (8737)

[disease]: and [there is] no soundness
<04974>

in my flesh
<01320>_.

38:8

I am feeble
<06313> (8738)

and sore
<03966>

broken
<01794> (8738)_:

I have roared
<07580> (8804)

by reason of the disquietness
<05100>

of my heart
<03820>_.

38:9

Lord
<0136>_,

all my desire
<08378>

[is] before thee; and my groaning
<0585>

is not hid
<05641> (8738)

from thee.

38:10

My heart
<03820>

panteth
<05503> (8773)_,

my strength
<03581>

faileth
<05800> (8804)

me: as for the light
<0216>

of mine eyes
<05869>_,

it
<01992>

also is gone
<0369>

from me. {is gone...: Heb. is not with me}

38:11

My lovers
<0157> (8802)

and my friends
<07453>

stand
<05975> (8799)

aloof from
<05048>

my sore
<05061>_;

and my kinsmen
<07138>

stand
<05975> (8804)

afar off
<07350>_.

{sore: Heb. stroke} {my kinsmen: or, my neighbours}

38:12

They also that seek
<01245> (8764)

after my life
<05315>

lay snares
<05367> (8762)

[for me]: and they that seek
<01875> (8802)

my hurt
<07451>

speak
<01696> (8765)

mischievous things
<01942>_,

and imagine
<01897> (8799)

deceits
<04820>

all the day
<03117>

long.

38:13

But I, as a deaf
<02795>

[man], heard
<08085> (8799)

not; and [I was] as a dumb man
<0483>

[that] openeth
<06605> (8799)

not his mouth
<06310>_.

38:14

Thus I was as a man
<0376>

that heareth
<08085> (8802)

not, and in whose mouth
<06310>

[are] no reproofs
<08433>_.

38:15

For in thee, O LORD
<03068>_,

do I hope
<03176> (8689)_:

thou wilt hear
<06030> (8799)_,

O Lord
<0136>

my God
<0430>_.

{in...: or, thee do I wait for} {hear: or, answer}

38:16

For I said
<0559> (8804)_,

[Hear me], lest [otherwise] they should rejoice
<08055> (8799)

over me: when my foot
<07272>

slippeth
<04131> (8800)_,

they magnify
<01431> (8689)

[themselves] against me.

38:17

For I [am] ready
<03559> (8737)

to halt
<06761>_,

and my sorrow
<04341>

[is] continually
<08548>

before me. {to halt: Heb. for halting}

38:18

For I will declare
<05046> (8686)

mine iniquity
<05771>_;

I will be sorry
<01672> (8799)

for my sin
<02403>_.

38:19

But mine enemies
<0341> (8802)

[are] lively
<02416>_,

[and] they are strong
<06105> (8804)_:

and they that hate
<08130> (8802)

me wrongfully
<08267>

are multiplied
<07231> (8804)_.

{are lively...: Heb. being living, are strong}

38:20

They also that render
<07999> (8764)

evil
<07451>

for good
<02896>

are mine adversaries
<07853> (8799)_;

because I follow
<07291> (8800)

[the thing that] good
<02896>

[is].

38:21

Forsake
<05800> (8799)

me not, O LORD
<03068>_:

O my God
<0430>_,

be not far
<07368> (8799)

from me.

38:22

Make haste
<02363> (8798)

to help
<05833>

me, O Lord
<0136>

my salvation
<08668>_.

{to...: Heb. for my help}
