Prayer Of A Suffering Sinner
1 O Yahweh, do not, in thine anger, correct me, nor, in thy wrath, chastise me;
1 {A Psalm of David, to bring to remembrance.} O LORD, rebuke me not in thy wrath: neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
1 A Psalm of David, for a memorial.O Lord, (A)rebuke me not in Your wrath,And chasten me not in Your burning anger.
1 A Davidic psalm for remembrance.(A)Lord, do not punish me in Your angeror discipline me in Your wrath.(B)
1 LORD! Do not rebuke me in your anger; do not correct me in your wrath,
3 For, mine iniquities, have passed over my head, Like a heavy burden, they are too heavy for me:
3 There is no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither is there any rest in my bones because of my sin.
3 There is (D)no soundness in my flesh (E)because of Your indignation;There is no health (F)in my bones because of my sin.
3 There is no health in my bodybecause of Your indignation;there is no strength(a) in my bonesbecause of my sin.(D)
3 My body is unhealthy due to your anger, and my bones have no rest due to my sin.
10 My lovers, and my friends, from before my stroke, stand aloof, - and, my near ones, far away, do stand:
10 My heart panteth, my strength faileth me: as for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me.
10 My heart throbs, (Q)my strength fails me;And the (R)light of my eyes, even (f)that (g)has gone from me.
10 My heart pounds, my strength fails me, even the gleam in my eye is gone.
11 Yea they who are seeking my life, have laid snares, and they who are asking my harm, have threatened engulfing ruin, And, deceitful things - all day long, do they mutter.
11 My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my sore; and my kinsmen stand afar off.
11 As for my friends and my neighbors, they stand aloof from my distress; even my close relatives stand at a distance.
12 But, I, as one deaf, will not hear, - and as one dumb, who will not open his mouth:
12 They also that seek after my life lay snares for me: and they that seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and imagine deceits all the day long.
12 Those who (U)seek my life (V)lay snares for me;And those who (W)seek to injure me have (i)threatened destruction,And they (X)devise treachery all day long.
12 Those who seek my life set traps,and those who want to harm me threaten to destroy me;they plot treachery all day long.(M)
12 Those who seek my life lay snares for me; those who seek to do me harm brag all day long about their wicked planning.
13 Thus have I become as a man who cannot hear, in whose mouth are no arguments:
13 But I, as a deaf man, heard not; and I was as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth.
13 I am like a deaf person; I do not hear.I am like a speechless personwho does not open his mouth.(N)
13 I am like the deaf, who cannot hear, and like the mute, who cannot open his mouth.
14 Because, for thee, O Yahweh, have I waited, Thou, wilt answer, O Adonay, my God!
14 Thus I was as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no reproofs.
14 Yes, I am like a man who does not hear,And in whose mouth are no arguments.
14 Indeed, I have become like a man who hears nothing, and in whose mouth there is no rebuke.
16 For, I, to halt, am ready, and, my pain, is before me continually;
16 For I said, Hear me, lest otherwise they should rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.
16 For I said, “May they not rejoice over me,Who, when my foot slips, (AB)would magnify themselves against me.”
16 For I said, "Do not let them gloat over me, as they congratulate themselves when my foot slips."
