Dual Panel1A psalm <04210> of David <01732>, written to get <02142> God’s attention <02142>. O Lord <03068>, do not <0408> continue to rebuke <03198> me in your anger <07110>! Do not continue to punish <03256> me in your raging fury <02534>!
2For <03588> your arrows <02671> pierce <05181> me, and your hand <03027> presses <05181> me down <05181>.
3My whole <0369> body <01320> is sick <04974> because <06440> of your judgment <02195>; I am deprived <0369> of health <06106> <07965> because <06440> of my sin <02403>.
4For <03588> my sins <05771> overwhelm <07218> <05674> me; like a heavy <03515> load <04853>, they are too <04480> much <03513> for me to bear.
5My wounds <02250> are infected <0887> and starting to smell <04743>, because <06440> of my foolish sins <0200>.
6I am dazed <05753> and completely <03966> humiliated <07817>; all <03605> day <03117> long I walk around <01980> mourning <06937>.
7For <03588> I am overcome <04390> with shame <07033> and my whole body <01320> is sick <04974> <0369>.
8I am numb with pain <06313> and severely <03966> battered <01794>; I groan loudly <07580> because of the anxiety <05100> I feel <03820>.
9O Lord <0136>, you understand <05048> my heart’s desire <08378>; my groaning <0585> is not <03808> hidden <05641> from <04480> you.
10My heart <03820> beats quickly <05503>; my strength <03581> leaves <05800> me; I can hardly <0369> see <05869> <0216>.
11Because of my condition <05061>, even my friends <07453> and acquaintances <07138> keep <05975> their distance <05975>; my neighbors stand <05975> far away <07350>.
12Those who seek <01875> my life <05315> try to entrap <05367> me; those who want <01245> to harm <07451> me speak <01696> destructive <01942> words; all <03605> day <03117> long they say <01897> deceitful <04820> things.
13But I <0589> am like a deaf <02795> man– I hear <08085> nothing <03808>; I am like a mute <0483> who cannot <03808> speak <06310> <06605>.
14I am <01961> like a man <0376> who <0834> cannot <03808> hear <08085> and is incapable <0369> of arguing <06310> his defense <08433>.
15Yet <03588> I wait <03176> for you, O Lord <03069>! You <0859> will respond <06030>, O Lord <0136>, my God <0430>!
16I have prayed for deliverance <0559>, because <03588> otherwise <06435> they will gloat over <08055> me; when my foot <07272> slips <04131> they will arrogantly taunt <01431> me.
17For <03588> I <0589> am about <03559> to stumble <06761>, and I am in <05048> constant <08548> pain <04341>.
18Yes <03588>, I confess <05046> my wrongdoing <05771>, and I am concerned <01672> about my sins <02403>.
19But those who are my enemies <0341> for no reason are numerous <06105>; those who hate <08130> me without cause <08267> outnumber <07231> me.
20They repay <07999> me evil <07451> for <08478> the good <02896> I have done <07291>; though I have tried to do good <07291> to them, they hurl accusations <07853> at <08478> me.
21Do not <0408> abandon <05800> me, O Lord <03068>! My God <0430>, do not <0408> remain far away <07368> from <04480> me!
22Hurry <02363> and help <05833> me, O Lord <0136>, my deliverer <08668>!
