(1) 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 presseth 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 mine iniquities are gone over mine head: as an 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 have roared 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 panteth, my strength faileth me: as for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me. (11) My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my sore; and my kinsmen stand afar off (12) They also that seek after my life lay snares [for me:] and they that seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and imagine deceits all the day long. (13) But I, as a deaf [man,] heard not; and [I was] as a dumb man [that] openeth not his mouth. (14) Thus I was as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth [are] no reproofs. (15) For in thee, O LORD, do I hope: thou wilt hear, O Lord my God (16) For I said, [Hear me] , lest [otherwise] they should rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they magnify [themselves] against me. (17) For I [am] ready to halt, and my sorrow [is] continually before me. (18) For I will declare mine iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin. (19) But mine enemies [are] lively, [and] they are strong: and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied (20) They also that render evil for good are mine adversaries; because I follow [the thing that] good [is.] (21) Forsake me not, O LORD: O my God, be not far from me. (22) Make haste to help me, O Lord my salvation
