1 < of David <01732>, to bring to remembrance <02142> (8687).>> O LORD <03068>, rebuke <03198> (8686) me not in thy wrath <07110>: neither chasten <03256> (8762) me in thy hot displeasure <02534>.
2 For thine arrows <02671> stick fast <05181> (8738) in me, and thy hand <03027> presseth me sore <05181> (8799).
3 There is no soundness <04974> in my flesh <01320> because <06440> of thine anger <02195>; neither is there any rest <07965> in my bones <06106> because <06440> of my sin <02403>.
When there is no peace within through guilt of sin, it affects your bones and joints. Sometimes arthritis can be overcome by letting go of inner conflicts.
4 For mine iniquities <05771> are gone over <05674> (8804) mine head <07218>: as an heavy <03515> burden <04853> they are too heavy <03513> (8799) for me.
5 My wounds <02250> stink <0887> (8689) and are corrupt <04743> (8738) because <06440> of my foolishness <0200>.
6 I am troubled <05753> (8738); I am bowed down <07817> (8804) greatly <03966>; I go <01980> (8765) mourning <06937> (8802) all the day <03117> long.
7 For my loins <03689> are filled <04390> (8804) with a loathsome <07033> (8737) disease: and there is no soundness <04974> in my flesh <01320>.
8 I am feeble <06313> (8738) and sore <03966> broken <01794> (8738): I have roared <07580> (8804) by reason of the disquietness <05100> of my heart <03820>.
9 Lord <0136>, all my desire <08378> is before thee; and my groaning <0585> is not hid <05641> (8738) from thee.
10 My heart <03820> panteth <05503> (8773), my strength <03581> faileth <05800> (8804) me: as for the light <0216> of mine eyes <05869>, it <01992> also is gone <0369> from me.
11 My lovers <0157> (8802) and my friends <07453> stand <05975> (8799) aloof from <05048> my sore <05061>; and my kinsmen <07138> stand <05975> (8804) afar off <07350>.
12 They also that seek <01245> (8764) after my life <05315> lay snares <05367> (8762) for me: and they that seek <01875> (8802) my hurt <07451> speak <01696> (8765) mischievous things <01942>, and imagine <01897> (8799) deceits <04820> all the day <03117> long.
13 But I, as a deaf <02795> man, heard <08085> (8799) not; and I was as a dumb man <0483> that openeth <06605> (8799) not his mouth <06310>.
14 Thus I was as a man <0376> that heareth <08085> (8802) not, and in whose mouth <06310> are no reproofs <08433>.
15 For in thee, O LORD <03068>, do I hope <03176> (8689): thou wilt hear <06030> (8799), O Lord <0136> my God <0430>.
16 For I said <0559> (8804), Hear me, lest otherwise they should rejoice <08055> (8799) over me: when my foot <07272> slippeth <04131> (8800), they magnify <01431> (8689) themselves against me.
17 For I am ready <03559> (8737) to halt <06761>, and my sorrow <04341> is continually <08548> before me.
18 For I will declare <05046> (8686) mine iniquity <05771>; I will be sorry <01672> (8799) for my sin <02403>.
19 But mine enemies <0341> (8802) are lively <02416>, and they are strong <06105> (8804): and they that hate <08130> (8802) me wrongfully <08267> are multiplied <07231> (8804).
His problem was not his failure - he was happy to admit his failings. But it is when you are committed and faithful that you face the greatest attack from the enemy.
20 They also that render <07999> (8764) evil <07451> for good <02896> are mine adversaries <07853> (8799) ; because I follow <07291> (8800) the thing that good <02896> is.
21 Forsake <05800> (8799) me not, O LORD <03068>: O my God <0430>, be not far <07368> (8799) from me.
22 Make haste <02363> (8798) to help <05833> me, O Lord <0136> my salvation <08668>.
