Jay P. Green's Literal Translation 1993
| 38:1 | A Psalm of David, to bring to remembrance. O Jehovah, do not rebuke me in Your wrath, and do not chasten me in Your fury. |
| 38:2 | For Your arrows sink in me, and Your hand presses heavily on me. |
| 38:3 | There is no soundness in my flesh because of Your anger; nor peace in my bones because of my sin. |
| 38:4 | For my iniquities have passed over my head, as a heavy burden too heavy for me. |
| 38:5 | My wounds have putrefied and rotted, because of my foolishness. |
| 38:6 | I am bent down, I am bowed down exceedingly; I went mourning all the day long. |
| 38:7 | For my loins are filled with a burning, and there is no soundness in my flesh. |
| 38:8 | I am exceedingly benumbed and crushed. I howl from the groanings of my heart. |
| 38:9 | My Lord, all my desire is before You, and my sighing is not hidden from You. |
| 38:10 | My heart throbs; my power forsakes me! And the light of my eyes, they also are not with me. |
| 38:11 | My lovers and my friends stand apart from my stroke, and my neighbors have stood far off. |
| 38:12 | And those seeking my life lay a snare; yea, those seeking my evil speak ruin, and they utter deceits all the day long. |
| 38:13 | But like a deaf one I do not hear; and I am like a dumb one who does not open his mouth. |
| 38:14 | And I am as a man who is not hearing, and who has no rebukes in his mouth. |
| 38:15 | For I hope in You, O Jehovah; O Lord my God You will answer. |
| 38:16 | For I said, Lest they rejoice over me in the slipping of my foot; they exalt themselves over me. |
| 38:17 | For I am ready to fall and my pain is before me always. |
| 38:18 | For I will confess my perversity; I am anxious from my sin. |
| 38:19 | And my enemies are living; they are strong; and my haters multiply by falsehood. |
| 38:20 | And those who repay evil for good, they attack me, because the good follows me. |
| 38:21 | O Jehovah, do not forsake me! O my God, do not be far from me; |
| 38:22 | Make haste to help me, O my Lord, my salvation. |
