381 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 [1] 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; [2] 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 [3] from me. 11 My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my sore; [4] 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, [5] 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.
381 O Jehovah, 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 indignation; Neither is there any health in my bones because of my sin. 4 For mine iniquities are gone over my head: As a heavy burden they are too heavy for me. 5 My wounds are loathsome and corrupt, Because of my foolishness. 6 I am pained and bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long. 7 For my loins are filled with burning; And there is no soundness in my flesh. 8 I am faint and sore bruised: I have groaned 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 throbbeth, 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 plague; 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 meditate deceits all the day long. 13 But I, as a deaf man, hear not; And I am as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth. 14 Yea, I am as a man that heareth not, And in whose mouth are no reproofs. 15 For in thee, O Jehovah, do I hope: Thou wilt answer, O Lord my God. 16 For I said, Lest they rejoice over me: When my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me. 17 For I am ready to fall, 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] are strong; And they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied. 20 They also that render evil for good Are adversaries unto me, because I follow the thing that is good. 21 Forsake me not, O Jehovah: O my God, be not far from me. 22 Make haste to help me, O Lord, my salvation.
381 Yahweh, don’t rebuke me in your wrath,
neither chasten me in your hot displeasure. 2 For your arrows have pierced me,
your hand presses hard on me. 3 There is no soundness in my flesh because of your indignation,
neither is there any health in my bones because of my sin. 4 For my iniquities have gone over my head.
As a heavy burden, they are too heavy for me. 5 My wounds are loathsome and corrupt,
because of my foolishness. 6 I am pained and bowed down greatly.
I go mourning all day long. 7 For my waist is filled with burning.
There is no soundness in my flesh. 8 I am faint and severely bruised.
I have groaned by reason of the anguish of my heart. 9 Lord, all my desire is before you.
My groaning is not hidden from you. 10 My heart throbs.
My strength fails me.
As for the light of my eyes, it has also left me. 11 My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my plague.
My kinsmen stand far away.
12 They also who seek after my life lay snares.
Those who seek my hurt speak mischievous things,
and meditate deceits all day long. 13 But I, as a deaf man, don’t hear.
I am as a mute man who doesn’t open his mouth. 14 Yes, I am as a man who doesn’t hear,
in whose mouth are no reproofs. 15 For in you, Yahweh, do I hope.
You will answer, Lord my God. 16 For I said, “Don’t let them gloat over me,
or exalt themselves over me when my foot slips.” 17 For I am ready to fall.
My pain is continually before me. 18 For I will declare my iniquity.
I will be sorry for my sin. 19 But my enemies are vigorous and many.
Those who hate me without reason are numerous. 20 They who also render evil for good are adversaries to me,
because I follow what is good. 21 Don’t forsake me, Yahweh.
My God, don’t be far from me. 22 Hurry to help me,
Lord, my salvation.
