1. Lord, do not rebuke me in your angeror discipline me in your wrath.
2. Your arrows have pierced me,and your hand has come down on me.
3. Because of your wrath there is no health in my body;there is no soundness in my bones because of my sin.
4. My guilt has overwhelmed melike a burden too heavy to bear.
5. My wounds fester and are loathsomebecause of my sinful folly.
6. I am bowed down and brought very low;all day long I go about mourning.
7. My back is filled with searing pain;there is no health in my body.
8. I am feeble and utterly crushed;I groan in anguish of heart.
9. All my longings lie open before you, Lord:my sighing is not hidden from you.
