Chapter 37

1


 

  A psalm for David, for a remembrance of the sabbath.  

 

 

--

2


 

  Rebuke me not, O Lord, in thy indignation; nor chastise me in thy wrath.  

 

 

--

3


 

  For thy arrows are fastened in me : and thy hand hath been strong upon me.  

 

 

--

4


 

  There is no health in my flesh, because of thy wrath : there is no peace for my bones, because of my sins.  

 

 

--

5


 

  For my iniquities are gone over my head : and as a heavy burden are become heavy upon me.  

 

 

--

6


 

  My sores are putrified and corrupted, because of my foolishness.  

 

 

--

7


 

  I am become miserable, and am bowed down even to the end : I walked sorrowful all the day long.  

 

 

--

8


 

  For my loins are filled with illusions; and there is no health in my flesh.  

 

 

--

9


 

  I am afflicted and humbled exceedingly : I roared with the groaning of my heart.  

 

 

--

10


 

  Lord, all my desire is before thee, and my groaning is not hidden from thee.  

 

 

--

11


 

  My heart is troubled, my strength hath left me, and the light of my eyes itself is not with me.  

 

 

--

12


 

  My friends and my neighbours have drawn near, and stood against me. And they that were near me stood afar off :  

 

 

--

13


 

  And they that sought my soul used violence. And they that sought evils to me spoke vain things, and studied deceits all the day long.  

 

 

--

14


 

  But I, as a deaf man, heard not : and as a dumb man not opening his mouth.  

 

 

--

15


 

  And I became as a man that heareth not : and that hath no reproofs in his mouth.  

 

 

--

16


 

  For in thee, O Lord, have I hoped : thou wilt hear me, O Lord my God.  

 

 

--

17


 

  For I said: Lest at any time my enemies rejoice over me : and whilst my feet are moved, they speak great things against me.  

 

 

--

18


 

  For I am ready for scourges : and my sorrow is continually before me.  

 

 

--

19


 

  For I will declare my inequity : and I will think for my sin.  

 

 

--

20


 

  But my enemies live, and are stronger that I : and they hate me wrongfully are multiplied.  

 

 

--

21


 

  They that render evil for good, have detracted me, because I followed goodness.  

 

 

--

22


 

  Forsake me not, O Lord my God : do not thou depart from me.  

 

 

--

23


 

  Attend unto my help, O Lord, the God of my salvation.
