Psalm 38:5

My wounds are foul and festering
because of my foolishness.

When I kept silent, my bones became brittle
from my groaning all day long.

For my loins are full of burning pain,
and there is no health in my body.

God, You know my foolishness,
and my guilty acts are not hidden from You.

Why do you want more beatings?
Why do you keep on rebelling?
The whole head is hurt,
and the whole heart is sick.

Is there no balm in Gilead?
Is there no physician there?
So why has the healing of my dear people
not come about?

My wounds stink and are corrupt because of my foolishness.

For my loins are full of burning pain,
and there is no health in my body.

Why do you want more beatings?
Why do you keep on rebelling?
The whole head is hurt,
and the whole heart is sick.

Is there no balm in Gilead?
Is there no physician there?
So why has the healing of my dear people
not come about?
