Psalm 38:6

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long.

I am wearied with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I dissolve my couch with my tears.

For my life is spent with sorrow, and my years with sighing; my strength faileth through mine iniquity, and my bones are wasted.

I will say unto God my rock, Why hast thou forgotten me? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

For thou art the God of my strength: why hast thou cast me off? why go I about mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

Mine eye consumeth by reason of affliction. Upon thee, Jehovah, have I called every day; I have stretched out my hands unto thee.

I go about blackened, but not by the sun; I stand up, I cry in the congregation.

Like a swallow or a crane, so did I chatter; I mourned as a dove; mine eyes failed with looking upward: Lord, I am oppressed; undertake for me.

I go about blackened, but not by the sun; I stand up, I cry in the congregation.
