Prayer in Time of Chastening

A Psalm of David. To bring to remembrance.

1 O Lord, do not arebuke me in Your wrath,
Nor chasten me in Your hot displeasure! 
2 For Your arrows pierce me deeply,
And Your hand presses me down.
3 There is no soundness in my flesh
Because of Your anger,
Nor any health in my bones
Because of my sin.
4 For my iniquities have gone over my head;
Like a heavy burden they are too heavy for me.
5 My wounds are foul and festering
Because of my foolishness.
6 I am1 troubled, I am bowed down greatly;
I go mourning all the day long. 
7 For my loins are full of inflammation,
And there is no soundness in my flesh.
8 I am feeble and severely broken;
I groan because of the turmoil of my heart.
9 Lord, all my desire is before You;
And my sighing is not hidden from You.
