Psalms 38 — Context

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.

I am troubled, I am made low; I go weeping all the day.

For my body is full of burning; all my flesh is unhealthy.

I am feeble and crushed down; I gave a cry like a lion because of the grief in my heart.

Lord, all my desire is before you; my sorrow is not kept secret from you.
