New Testament

Psalms 38:3-12 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

3. There is no soundness in my flesh because of Your indignation; There is no health in my bones because of my sin.

4. For my iniquities are gone over my head; As a heavy burden they weigh too much for me.

5. My wounds grow foul and fester Because of my folly.

6. I am bent over and greatly bowed down; I go mourning all day long.

7. For my loins are filled with burning, And there is no soundness in my flesh.

8. I am benumbed and badly crushed; I groan because of the agitation of my heart.

9. Lord, all my desire is before You; And my sighing is not hidden from You.

10. My heart throbs, my strength fails me; And the light of my eyes, even that has gone from me.

11. My loved ones and my friends stand aloof from my plague; And my kinsmen stand afar off.

12. Those who seek my life lay snares for me; And those who seek to injure me have threatened destruction, And they devise treachery all day long.
