NET Bible
"Please stop wounding me! You have almost beaten me to death!"
— Psalms 39:10, NET Bible
“Remove thy stroke away from me: I am consumed by the blow of thine hand.”
“Remove thy stroke away from me: I am consumed by the blow of thy hand. ”
“Remove your scourge away from me. I am overcome by the blow of your hand.”
“I have declared thy justice in a great church, lo, I will not restrain my lips: O Lord, thou knowest it.”
“No longer let your hand be hard on me; I am wasted by the blows of your hand.”
“Remove thy stroke away from me: I am consumed by the blow of thine hand.”
But now, O Lord, upon what am I relying? You are my only hope!
Deliver me from all my sins of rebellion! Do not make me the object of fools’ insults!
I am silent and cannot open my mouth because of what you have done.
Please stop wounding me! You have almost beaten me to death!
You severely discipline people for their sins; like a moth you slowly devour their strength. Surely all people are a mere vapor.(Selah)
Hear my prayer, O LORD! Listen to my cry for help! Do not ignore my sobbing! For I am a foreign resident with you, a temporary settler, just as all my ancestors were.
Turn your angry gaze away from me, so I can be happy before I pass away.
