Psalms - ch 37 v 1 - 20
- A psalm for David, for a remembrance of the sabbath.
- Rebuke me not, O Lord, in thy indignation; nor chastise me in thy wrath.
- For thy arrows are fastened in me : and thy hand hath been strong upon me.
- There is no health in my flesh, because of thy wrath : there is no peace for my bones, because of my sins.
- For my iniquities are gone over my head : and as a heavy burden are become heavy upon me.
- My sores are putrified and corrupted, because of my foolishness.
- I am become miserable, and am bowed down even to the end : I walked sorrowful all the day long.
- For my loins are filled with illusions; and there is no health in my flesh.
- I am afflicted and humbled exceedingly : I roared with the groaning of my heart.
- Lord, all my desire is before thee, and my groaning is not hidden from thee.
- My heart is troubled, my strength hath left me, and the light of my eyes itself is not with me.
- My friends and my neighbours have drawn near, and stood against me. And they that were near me stood afar off :
- And they that sought my soul used violence. And they that sought evils to me spoke vain things, and studied deceits all the day long.
- But I, as a deaf man, heard not : and as a dumb man not opening his mouth.
- And I became as a man that heareth not : and that hath no reproofs in his mouth.
- For in thee, O Lord, have I hoped : thou wilt hear me, O Lord my God.
- For I said: Lest at any time my enemies rejoice over me : and whilst my feet are moved, they speak great things against me.
- For I am ready for scourges : and my sorrow is continually before me.
- For I will declare my inequity : and I will think for my sin.
- But my enemies live, and are stronger that I : and they hate me wrongfully are multiplied.
