诗篇38:
1（大卫的记念诗）耶和华啊，求你不要在怒中责备我。不要在烈怒中惩罚我。
2因为你的箭射入我身，你的手压住我。
3因你的恼怒，我的肉无一完全。因我的罪过，我的骨头也不安宁。
4我的罪孽高过我的头，如同重担叫我担当不起。
5因我的愚昧，我的伤发臭流脓。
6我疼痛，大大拳曲，终日哀痛。
7我满腰是火。我的肉无一完全。
8我被压伤，身体疲倦。因心里不安，我就唉哼。
9主啊，我的心愿都在你面前。我的叹息不向你隐瞒。
10我心跳动，我力衰微，连我眼中的光，也没有了。
11我的良朋密友，因我的灾病，都躲在旁边站着。我的亲戚本家，也远远地站立。
12那寻索我命的，设下网罗。那想要害我的，口出恶言，终日思想诡计。
13但我如聋子不听，像哑巴不开口。
14我如不听见的人，口中没有回话。
15耶和华啊，我仰望你。主我的神啊，你必应允我。
16我曾说，恐怕他们向我夸耀。我失脚的时候，他们向我夸大。
17我几乎跌倒，我的痛苦常在我面前。
18我要承认我的罪孽。我要因我的罪忧愁。
19但我的仇敌又活泼又强壮。无理恨我的增多了。
20以恶报善的与我作对，因我是追求良善。
21耶和华啊，求你不要撇弃我。我的神啊，求你不要远离我。
22拯救我的主啊，求你快快帮助我。
1O Lord, don’t rebuke me in your angeror discipline me in your rage!
2Your arrows have struck deep,and your blows are crushing me.
3Because of your anger, my whole body is sick;my health is broken because of my sins.
4My guilt overwhelms me—it is a burden too heavy to bear.
5My wounds fester and stinkbecause of my foolish sins.
6I am bent over and racked with pain.All day long I walk around filled with grief.
7A raging fever burns within me,and my health is broken.
8I am exhausted and completely crushed.My groans come from an anguished heart.
9You know what I long for, Lord;you hear my every sigh.
10My heart beats wildly, my strength fails,and I am going blind.
11My loved ones and friends stay away, fearing my disease.Even my own family stands at a distance.
12Meanwhile, my enemies lay traps to kill me.Those who wish me harm make plans to ruin me.All day long they plan their treachery.
13But I am deaf to all their threats.I am silent before them as one who cannot speak.
14I choose to hear nothing,and I make no reply.
15For I am waiting for you, O Lord.You must answer for me, O Lord my God.
16I prayed, “Don’t let my enemies gloat over meor rejoice at my downfall.”
17I am on the verge of collapse,facing constant pain.
18But I confess my sins;I am deeply sorry for what I have done.
19I have many aggressive enemies;they hate me without reason.
20They repay me evil for goodand oppose me for pursuing good.
21Do not abandon me, O Lord.Do not stand at a distance, my God.
22Come quickly to help me,O Lord my savior.
