Psalms 38:1-7 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

1. A psalm of David. For remembrance.

2. Lord, do not punish me in your anger;in your wrath do not chastise me!

3. Your arrows have sunk deep in me;your hand has come down upon me.

4. There is no wholesomeness in my flesh because of your anger;there is no health in my bones because of my sin.

5. My iniquities overwhelm me,a burden too heavy for me.

6. Foul and festering are my soresbecause of my folly.

7. I am stooped and deeply bowed;every day I go about mourning.
