1A Psalm of David. A lament. Reprove me not, Lord, in your anger, and chasten me not in your wrath;
2for your arrows have sunk into me, and your hand lies heavy upon me.
3In my flesh is no soundness because of your anger, no health in my bones, because of my sin.
4For that my guilt is gone over my head: it weighs like a burden too heavy for me.
5My wounds stink and fester, for my foolishness I am tormented.
6Bent and bowed am I utterly, all the day going in mourning.
