New International Version

Psalm 38:15-21 New International Version (NIV)

15. Lord, I wait for you; you will answer, Lord my God.

16. For I said, “Do not let them gloat or exalt themselves over me when my feet slip.”

17. For I am about to fall, and my pain is ever with me.

18. I confess my iniquity; I am troubled by my sin.

19. Many have become my enemies without cause ; those who hate me without reason are numerous.

20. Those who repay my good with evil lodge accusations against me, though I seek only to do what is good.

21. Lord, do not forsake me; do not be far from me, my God.
