Psalms 38:9-22
Psalms 38:9-22 CSB
Lord, my every desire is in front of you; my sighing is not hidden from you. My heart races, my strength leaves me, and even the light of my eyes has faded. , My loved ones and friends stand back from my affliction, and my relatives stand at a distance. Those who intend to kill me set traps, and those who want to harm me threaten to destroy me; they plot treachery all day long. I am like a deaf person; I do not hear. I am like a speechless person who does not open his mouth. I am like a man who does not hear and has no arguments in his mouth. For I put my hope in you, LORD; you will answer me, my Lord, my God. For I said, “Don’t let them rejoice over me — those who are arrogant toward me when I stumble.” For I am about to fall, and my pain is constantly with me. So I confess my iniquity; I am anxious because of my sin. But my enemies are vigorous and powerful; many hate me for no reason. Those who repay evil for good attack me for pursuing good. LORD, do not abandon me; my God, do not be far from me. Hurry to help me, my Lord, my salvation.
