1. O Lord, don't punish me in your anger!
2. You have wounded me with your arrows;you have struck me down.
3. Because of your anger, I am in great pain;my whole body is diseased because of my sins.
4. I am drowning in the flood of my sins;they are a burden too heavy to bear.
5. Because I have been foolish,my sores stink and rot.
6. I am bowed down, I am crushed;I mourn all day long.
7. I am burning with feverand I am near to death.
8. I am worn out and utterly crushed;my heart is troubled, and I groan with pain.
9. O Lord, you know what I long for;you hear all my groans.
