Psalms 37 — DRA
37Verse 1A psalm for David, for a remembrance of the sabbath.
Verse 2Rebuke me not, O Lord, in thy indignation; nor chastise me in thy wrath.
Verse 3For thy arrows are fastened in me: and thy hand hath been strong upon me.
Verse 4There is no health in my flesh, because of thy wrath: there is no peace for my bones, because of my sins.
Verse 5For my iniquities are gone over my head: and as a heavy burden are become heavy upon me.
Verse 6My sores are putrified and corrupted, because of my foolishness.
Verse 7I am become miserable, and am bowed down even to the end: I walked sorrowful all the day long.
Verse 8For my loins are filled with illusions; and there is no health in my flesh.
Verse 9I am afflicted and humbled exceedingly: I roared with the groaning of my heart.
Verse 10Lord, all my desire is before thee, and my groaning is not hidden from thee.
Verse 11My heart is troubled, my strength hath left me, and the light of my eyes itself is not with me.
Verse 12My friends and my neighbours have drawn near, and stood against me. And they that were near me stood afar off:
Verse 13And they that sought my soul used violence. And they that sought evils to me spoke vain things, and studied deceits all the day long.
Verse 14But I, as a deaf man, heard not: and as a dumb man not opening his mouth.
Verse 15And I became as a man that heareth not: and that hath no reproofs in his mouth.
Verse 16For in thee, O Lord, have I hoped: thou wilt hear me, O Lord my God.
Verse 17For I said: Lest at any time my enemies rejoice over me: and whilst my feet are moved, they speak great things against me.
Verse 18For I am ready for scourges: and my sorrow is continually before me.
Verse 19For I will declare my inequity: and I will think for my sin.
Verse 20But my enemies live, and are stronger that I: and they hate me wrongfully are multiplied.
Verse 21They that render evil for good, have detracted me, because I followed goodness.
Verse 22Forsake me not, O Lord my God: do not thou depart from me.
Verse 23Attend unto my help, O Lord, the God of my salvation.
