A Psalm of David, to bring to remembrance.
1 O LORD, rebuke me not in thy wrath: neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
2 For thine arrows stick fast in me, and thy hand presseth me sore.
3 There is no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither is there any rest in my bones because of my sin.
4 For mine iniquities are gone over mine head: as an heavy burden they are too heavy for me.
5 My wounds stink and are corrupt because of my foolishness.
6 I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long.
7 For my loins are filled with a loathsome disease: and there is no soundness in my flesh.
8 I am feeble and sore broken: I have roared by reason of the disquietness of my heart.
9 Lord, all my desire is before thee; and my groaning is not hid from thee.
10 My heart panteth, my strength faileth me: as for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me.
11 My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my sore; and my kinsmen stand afar off.
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.
13 But I, as a deaf man , heard not; and I was as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth.
14 Thus I was as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no reproofs.
15 For in thee, O LORD, do I hope: thou wilt hear, O Lord my God.
16 For I said, Hear me , lest otherwise they should rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.
17 For I am ready to halt, and my sorrow is continually before me.
18 For I will declare mine iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin.
19 But mine enemies are lively, and they are strong: and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied.
20 They also that render evil for good are mine adversaries; because I follow the thing that good is .
21 Forsake me not, O LORD: O my God, be not far from me.
22 Make haste to help me, O Lord my salvation.
1 in finem Idithun canticum David
2 Dixi custodiam vias meas ut non delinquam in lingua mea
posui ori meo custodiam cum consisteret peccator adversum me
3 obmutui et humiliatus sum et silui a bonis
et dolor meus renovatus est
4 concaluit cor meum intra me
et in meditatione mea exardescet ignis
5 locutus sum in lingua mea notum fac mihi Domine finem meum
et numerum dierum meorum quis est ut sciam quid desit mihi
6 ecce mensurabiles posuisti dies meos
et substantia mea tamquam nihilum ante te
verumtamen universa vanitas omnis homo vivens diapsalma
7 verumtamen in imagine pertransit homo
sed et frustra conturbatur
thesaurizat et ignorat cui congregabit ea
8 et nunc quae est expectatio mea nonne Dominus
et substantia mea apud te est
9 ab omnibus iniquitatibus meis erue me
obprobrium insipienti dedisti me
10 obmutui ÷et: non aperui os meum quoniam tu fecisti
11 amove a me plagas tuas
12 a fortitudine manus tuae ego defeci
in increpationibus propter iniquitatem corripuisti hominem
et tabescere fecisti sicut araneam animam eius
verumtamen vane ÷conturbatur: omnis homo diapsalma
13 exaudi orationem meam Domine et deprecationem meam
auribus percipe lacrimas meas
ne sileas quoniam advena sum apud te et peregrinus
sicut omnes patres mei
14 remitte mihi ut refrigerer priusquam abeam et amplius non ero
