13 Yet You have concealed (A)these things in Your heart;
I know that this is within You:
14 If I have sinned, You will (B)take note of me,
And (C)will not acquit me of my guilt.
15 If (D)I am wicked, woe to me!
But if (E)I am righteous, I dare not lift up my head.
I am full of shame, and [a]conscious of my misery.
16 And should my head be high, (F)You would hunt me like a lion;
And You would show Your (G)power against me again.
17 You renew (H)Your witnesses against me
And increase Your anger toward me;
[b](I)Hardship after hardship is with me.

I know that this was Your hidden plan:[a]
14 if I sin, You would notice,[b]
and would not acquit me of my wrongdoing.(A)
15 If I am wicked, woe to me!
And even if I am righteous, I cannot lift up my head.
I am filled with shame
and aware of my affliction.(B)
16 If I am proud,[c] You hunt me like a lion
and again display Your miraculous power against me.(C)
17 You produce new witnesses[d] against me
and multiply Your anger toward me.
Hardships assault me, wave after wave.[e]
