A Psalm of David, to bring to remembrance. O LORD, rebuke{H8686)} me not in thy wrath: neither chasten{H8762)} me in thy hot displeasure.

For thine arrows stick fast in me, and thy hand presseth me sore{H8799)}.

There is no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither is there any rest in my bones because of my sin.

For mine iniquities are gone over mine head: as an heavy burden they are too heavy{H8799)} for me.

My wounds stink and are corrupt{H8738)} because of my foolishness.

I am troubled; I am bowed down{H8804)} greatly; I go{H8765)} mourning{H8802)} all the day long.

For my loins are filled with a loathsome{H8737)} disease: and there is no soundness in my flesh.

I am feeble and sore broken{H8738)}: I have roared{H8804)} by reason of the disquietness of my heart.

Lord, all my desire is before thee; and my groaning is not hid from thee.

My heart panteth, my strength faileth{H8804)} me: as for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me.

My lovers and my friends stand{H8799)} aloof from my sore; and my kinsmen stand{H8804)} afar off.

They also that seek after my life lay snares{H8762)} for me: and they that seek{H8802)} my hurt speak{H8765)} mischievous things, and imagine{H8799)} deceits all the day long.

But I, as a deaf man, heard not; and I was as a dumb man that openeth{H8799)} not his mouth.

Thus I was as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no reproofs.

For in thee, O LORD, do I hope: thou wilt hear{H8799)}, O Lord my God.

For I said, Hear me, lest otherwise they should rejoice{H8799)} over me: when my foot slippeth{H8800)}, they magnify{H8689)} themselves against me.

For I am ready to halt, and my sorrow is continually before me.

For I will declare mine iniquity; I will be sorry{H8799)} for my sin.

But mine enemies are lively, and they are strong{H8804)}: and they that hate{H8802)} me wrongfully are multiplied{H8804)}.

They also that render evil for good are mine adversaries{H8799)}; because I follow{H8800)} the thing that good is.

Forsake me not, O LORD: O my God, be not far{H8799)} from me.

Make haste to help me, O Lord my salvation.
