Presentation transcript:

In wrath do not rebuke me, L ORD, or in your anger chasten me. Your arrows deeply pierce my soul; your hand lies on me heavily. [Sing to the Lord 38]

2. Because your anger rests on me, my body has no health within; there is no soundness in my bones, because you judge me for my sin.

3. My guilt has overwhelmed my soul; its burden is a crushing weight. My wounds are foul and festering, because my foolishness is great.

4. I am bowed down, I am brought low, and I go mourning all the day. My back is filled with searing pain, and my whole body wastes away.

5. I’m feeble and completely crushed; in anguish of my heart I groan. L ORD, my desires before you lie; to you my sighing is well known.

6. My heart beats wildly, strength has failed, the light has faded from my eye. My friends and neighbours keep away; they see my wounds and then pass by.

7. My enemies who seek my life with cunning set their snares for me; my foes conspire to do me harm, and all day long plot treachery.

8. I’m like the deaf, who cannot hear, and like the mute, who cannot cry. I’m like a man who hears no sound, whose mouth can offer no reply.

9. I wait for you, O L ORD my God; and you, O L ORD, will answer me. I prayed to you, “If my foot slips, let them not gloat exultantly.”

10. Indeed I am about to fall; my pain is ever deep within. I must confess iniquity, and I am troubled by my sin.

11. My foes are vigorous and strong; and many hate me wrongfully. My good with evil they repay; when I seek good, they slander me.
