PSALM 38
Do Not Forsake Me, O Yahweh
A Psalm of David. To bring to remembrance.
1 O Yahweh H3068, reprove H3198 me not in Your wrath H7110,
And discipline H3256 me not in Your burning H2534 anger H2534.
2 For Your arrows H2671 have pressed H5181 deep H5181 into me,
And Your hand H3027 has pressed H5181 down H5181 upon me.
3 There H369 is H369 no H369 soundness H4974 in my flesh H1320 because H4480 H6440 of Your indignation H2195;
There H369 is H369 no H369 health H7965 in my bones H6106 because H4480 H6440 of my sin H2403.
4 For my iniquities H5771 go H5674 over H5674 my head H7218;
As a heavy H3515 burden H4853 they weigh H3513 too H4480 much H3513 for me.
5 My [fn]wounds H2250 stink H887 and rot H4743
Because H4480 H6440 of my [fn]folly H200.
6 I am bent H5753 over and greatly H3966 bowed H7817 down H7817;
I go H1980 mourning H6937 all H3605 day H3117 long.
7 For my loins H3689 are filled H4390 with burning H7033,
And there H369 is H369 no H369 soundness H4974 in my flesh H1320.
8 I am faint H6313 and [fn]badly H3966 crushed H1794;
I [fn]groan H7580 because H4480 of the [fn]agitation H5100 of my heart H3820.
9 Lord H136, all H3605 my desire H8378 is [fn]before H5048 You;
And my sighing H585 is not hidden H5641 from You.
10 My heart H3820 throbs H5503, my strength H3581 forsakes H5800 me;
And the light H216 of my eyes H5869, even H1571 [fn]that [fn]has H369 gone H369 from me.
11 My [fn]loved H157 ones and my friends H7453 stand H5975 aloof H4480 H5048 from my plague H5061;
And my kinsmen H7138 stand H5975 afar H7350 off H4480.
12 Those who search H1245 for my life H5315 lay H5367 snares H5367 for me;
And those who seek H1875 [fn]to do me evil H7451 have [fn]threatened H1696 destruction H1942,
And they meditate H1897 on deception H4820 all H3605 day H3117 long.
13 But I, like a deaf H2795 man H2795, do not hear H8085;
And I am like a mute H483 man H483 who does not open H6605 his mouth H6310.
14 And I am like a man H376 who H834 does not hear H8085,
And in whose mouth H6310 are no H369 reproofs H8433.
15 For I [fn]wait H3176 on You, O Yahweh H3068;
You will answer H6030, O Lord H136 my God H430.
16 For I said H559, “Save, lest H6435 they be glad H8055 over me,
Who, when my foot H7272 stumbles H4131, magnify H1431 themselves against H5921 me.”
17 For I am ready H3559 to fall H6761,
And my [fn]sorrow H4341 is continually H8548 before H5048 me.
18 For I [fn]confess H5046 my iniquity H5771;
I am H1672 full H1672 of H1672 anxiety H1672 because H4480 of my sin H2403.
19 But my enemies H340 are vigorous H2416 and [fn]strong H6105,
And those who wrongfully H8267 hate H8130 me abound H7231.
20 And those who repay H7999 evil H7451 for good H2896,
They accuse H7853 me, for H8478 I pursue H7291 what H2896 is H2896 good H2896.
21 Do not forsake H5800 me, O Yahweh H3068;
O my God H430, do not be H7368 far H7368 from me!
