23 How many are my iniquities and sins?
Make me know my transgression and my sin.

24 ^aWhy do You hide Your face,
And ^bregard me as Your enemy? ‡

26 For You write bitter things against me,
And ^amake me inherit the iniquities of my youth. ‡

27 ^aYou¹ put my feet in the stocks,
And watch closely all my paths.
You set a limit for the² soles of my feet. ‡
