Psalms 38:1-8 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

1. O Yahweh, do not rebuke me in your anger or chastise me in your wrath.

2. For your arrows have sunk into me, and your hand has pressed down on me.

3. There is no soundness in my flesh because of your indignation. There is no health in my bones because of my sin.

4. For my iniquities have passed over my head; like a heavy burden they are too heavy for me.

5. My wounds start to stink; they rot because of my foolishness.

6. I am bowed down; I am bent over greatly. All the day I go about mourning.

7. For my loins are full of burning, and there is no soundness in my flesh.

8. I am faint and crushed greatly; I groan because of the roaring of my heart.
