Psalm 38:6

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

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

I am weary with my groaning. Every night I make my bed to swim. I water my couch with my tears.

For my life is spent with sorrow, and my years with sighing. My strength fails because of my iniquity, and my bones are wasted away.

I will say to God my rock, Why have thou forgotten me? Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

For thou are the God of my strength. Why have thou cast me off? Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

My eye wastes away because of affliction. I have called daily upon thee, O LORD, I have spread forth my hands to thee.

I go mourning without the sun. I stand up in the assembly, and cry for help.

Like a swallow [or] a crane, so I chattered. I moaned as a dove. My eyes fail [with looking] upward. O LORD, I am oppressed, be thou my surety.

I go mourning without the sun. I stand up in the assembly, and cry for help.
