"For your arrows have gone into my flesh, and I am crushed under the weight of your hand."
— Psalms 38:2, Bible in Basic English
“For thine arrows stick fast in me, and thy hand presseth me sore.”
“For thine arrows stick fast in me, And thy hand presseth me sore. ”
“For your arrows pierce me, and your hand presses me down.”
“I said: I will take heed to my ways: that I sin not with my tongue. I have set a guard to my mouth, when the sinner stood against me.”
“For thine arrows stick fast in me, and thy hand presseth me sore.”
O Lord, be not bitter with me in your wrath; let not your hand be on me in the heat of your passion.
For your arrows have gone into my flesh, and I am crushed under the weight of your hand.
My flesh is wasted because of your wrath; and there is no peace in my bones because of my sin.
For my crimes have gone over my head; they are like a great weight which is more than my strength.
My wounds are poisoned and evil-smelling, because of my foolish behaviour.
