A Psalm
of David,
to bring to remembrance.
O LORD,
rebuke
me not in thy wrath:
neither chasten
me in thy hot displeasure.
For thine arrows
stick fast
in me, and thy hand
presseth me sore.
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
for me.
My wounds
stink
and are corrupt
because
of my foolishness.
I am troubled;
I am bowed down
greatly;
I go
mourning
all the day
long.
For my loins
are filled
with a loathsome
disease: and there is no soundness
in my flesh.
I am feeble
and sore
broken:
I have roared
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
me: as for the light
of mine eyes,
it
also is gone
from me.
My lovers
and my friends
stand
aloof from
my sore;
and my kinsmen
stand
afar off.
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.
But I, as a deaf
man, heard
not; and I was as a dumb man
that openeth
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,
O Lord
my God.
For I said,
Hear me, lest otherwise they should rejoice
over me: when my foot
slippeth,
they magnify
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
for my sin.
But mine enemies
are lively,
and they are strong:
and they that hate
me wrongfully
are multiplied.
They also that render
evil
for good
are mine adversaries;
because I follow
the thing that good
is.
Forsake
me not, O LORD:
O my God,
be not far
from me.

Make haste
to help
me, O Lord
my salvation.
