O Lord,wPs. 38:1 rebuke me not in your anger,
norx[Ps. 94:12; 118:18; Prov. 3:11, 12; Jer. 30:11; 46:28]; See Heb. 12:3-11 discipline me in your wrath.
2 Be gracious to me, O Lord, for I am languishing;
yPs. 30:2; 41:4; 103:3 heal me, O Lord,zSee Ps. 31:10 for my bones are troubled.
3 Mya[John 12:27] soul also is greatly troubled.
But you, O Lord —bPs. 90:13 how long?
4 Turn, O Lord, deliver my life;
save me for the sake of your steadfast love.
5 For incPs. 30:9; 88:10-12; 115:17; Isa. 38:18 death there is no remembrance of you;
in Sheol who will give you praise?
6 I amdPs. 69:3 weary with myePs. 38:9 moaning;
every night I flood my bed with tears;
I drench my couch with my weeping.
7 MyfPs. 31:9; 88:9; [Ps. 38:10; Job 17:7; Lam. 2:11; 5:17] eye wastes away because of grief;
it grows weak because of all my foes.
8 gPs. 119:115; 139:19; Matt. 7:23; 25:41; Luke 13:27 Depart from me, all youhPs. 94:4 workers of evil,
for the Lordi[Ps. 3:4] has heard the sound of my weeping.
9 The Lord has heard myjPs. 55:1; 1 Kgs. 8:38 plea;
the Lord accepts my prayer.
10 All my enemies shall be ashamed and greatly troubled;
they shallkPs. 40:14; 56:9 turn back and be put to shame in a moment.
