哀陈苦况求主矜怜

38 大卫的纪念诗。

耶和华啊,求你不要在怒中责备我,不要在烈怒中惩罚我!
因为你的箭射入我身,你的手压住我。
因你的恼怒,我的肉无一完全;因我的罪过,我的骨头也不安宁。
我的罪孽高过我的头,如同重担叫我担当不起。
因我的愚昧,我的伤发臭流脓。
我疼痛,大大蜷曲,终日哀痛。
我满腰是火,我的肉无一完全。
我被压伤,身体疲倦;因心里不安,我就唉哼。
主啊,我的心愿都在你面前,我的叹息不向你隐瞒。
10 我心跳动,我力衰微,连我眼中的光也没有了。
11 我的良朋密友因我的灾病都躲在旁边站着,我的亲戚本家也远远地站立。
12 那寻索我命的设下网罗,那想要害我的口出恶言,终日思想诡计。
13 但我如聋子不听,像哑巴不开口。
14 我如不听见的人,口中没有回话。
15 耶和华啊,我仰望你!主我的神啊,你必应允我!
16 我曾说:“恐怕他们向我夸耀,我失脚的时候,他们向我夸大。”
17 我几乎跌倒,我的痛苦常在我面前。
18 我要承认我的罪孽,我要因我的罪忧愁。
19 但我的仇敌又活泼又强壮,无理恨我的增多了。
20 以恶报善的与我作对,因我是追求良善。
21 耶和华啊,求你不要撇弃我!我的神啊,求你不要远离我!
22 拯救我的主啊,求你快快帮助我!

David wrote this song to ask God not to forget him.

Lord, please remember me[a]

38 Lord, when you are angry,
    please do not punish me.
You have shot your arrows deep into me.
    Your hand has pushed me down to the ground.[b]
Your punishment has made my whole body ill.
    My health has gone, because of my sin.
My sin is too much for me!
It is like a heavy weight,
    that I cannot carry.
My wounds make a bad smell,
    and they get worse.
This is because I have done stupid things.
My body is bent down to the ground.
    Every day I weep because I am so sad.
My body is hot with fever.[c]
    I am very ill.
The pain has made me tired and weak.
    I am so upset that I cry aloud.

My Lord, you already know what I want most.
    You hear me when I cry with pain.
10 My heart beats very fast,
    and my strength is leaving me.
Even my eyes can no longer see properly.
11 My family and my friends stay away from me,
    because of my illness.
They do not come near to me.
12 My enemies prepare traps,
    because they want to kill me.
They talk about ways to destroy me.
They want to hurt me,
    so they talk about that all through the day.
13 But I am like a deaf man who hears nothing.
I am like a dumb man who says nothing.
14 So I live like a man who cannot hear what people say.
    I refuse to argue against them.
15 Yes, Lord, I wait for you to help me!
I believe that you will answer me, my Lord and my God.
16 I have prayed that my enemies will not laugh at me.
If I slip and fall down,
    they will be very happy!
17 I will soon fall down to the ground.
    I have nothing but pain all the time.
18 But I agree that I have done wrong things.
    I am sorry about my sins.
19 I have many enemies and they are strong.
    They have no reason to hate me.
20 When I do good things,
    they do evil things to me in return!
I try to do what is right,
    but they turn against me.
21 Lord, please do not leave me alone.
    Do not stay far away from me, my God!
22 My Lord, you are the one who can save me,
    so come quickly to help me!

Salmo de David, para las ofrendas memoriales.

38 Señor, no me reprendas en tu enojo
    ni me castigues en tu ira.
Porque tus flechas me han atravesado,
    y sobre mí ha caído tu mano.
A causa de tu indignación
    no hay nada sano en mi cuerpo;
por mi pecado,
    mis huesos no hallan descanso.
Mis maldades me abruman,
    son una carga demasiado pesada.

A causa de mi insensatez,
    mis llagas hieden y supuran.
Estoy agobiado, del todo abatido;
    todo el día ando acongojado.
Estoy ardiendo de fiebre;
    no hay nada sano en mi cuerpo.
Me siento débil, completamente deshecho;
    mi corazón gime angustiado.

Ante ti, Señor, están todos mis deseos;
    no te son un secreto mis anhelos.
10 Late mi corazón con violencia,
    las fuerzas me abandonan,
    hasta la luz de mis ojos se apaga.
11 Mis amigos y vecinos se apartan de mis llagas;
    mis parientes se mantienen a distancia.
12 Tienden sus trampas los que quieren matarme;
    maquinan mi ruina los que buscan mi mal
    y todo el día urden engaños.

13 Pero yo me hago el sordo, y no los escucho;
    me hago el mudo, y no les respondo.
14 Soy como los que no oyen
    ni pueden defenderse.
15 Yo, Señor, espero en ti;
    tú, Señor y Dios mío, serás quien responda.
16 Tan solo pido que no se burlen de mí,
    que no se crean superiores si resbalo.

17 Cerca estoy de desfallecer;
    el dolor no me deja un solo instante.
18 Voy a confesar mi iniquidad,
    pues mi pecado me angustia.
19 Muchos son mis enemigos gratuitos;[a]
    abundan los que me odian sin motivo.
20 Por hacer el bien, me pagan con el mal;
    por procurar lo bueno, se ponen en mi contra.

21 Señor, no me abandones;
    Dios mío, no te alejes de mí.
22 Señor de mi salvación,
    ¡ven pronto en mi ayuda!
