Psalms 38:3-15 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

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

4. For my iniquities are gone over my head: as a heavy burden they are too heavy for me.

5. My wounds are foul and are corrupt because of my foolishness.

6. I am troubled; 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 utterly broken: I have groaned by reason of the turmoil of my heart.

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

10. My heart pants, my strength fails me: as for the light of my 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 plan deceit all the day long.

13. But I, as a deaf man, heard not; and I was as a dumb man that opens not his mouth.

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

15. For in you, O LORD, do I hope: you will hear, O Lord my God.
