Psalms and Wisdom: Psalm 38 Psalm 38 (Listen) Do Not Forsake Me, O Lord A Psalm of David, for the memorial offering. 38 O LORD, rebuke me not in your anger,<br /> nor discipline me in your wrath!<br />2 For your arrows have sunk into me,<br /> and your hand has come down on me.<br /> 3 There is no soundness in my flesh<br /> because of your indignation;<br /> there is no health in my bones<br /> because of my sin.<br />4 For my iniquities have gone over my head;<br /> like a heavy burden, they are too heavy for me.<br /> 5 My wounds stink and fester<br /> because of my foolishness,<br />6 I am utterly bowed down and prostrate;<br /> all the day I go about mourning.<br />7 For my sides are filled with burning,<br /> and there is no soundness in my flesh.<br />8 I am feeble and crushed;<br /> I groan because of the tumult of my heart.<br /> 9 O Lord, all my longing is before
