Mga Awit 38
Ang Biblia, 2001
Awit ni David, para sa handog pang-alaala.
38 O Panginoon, sa pagkagalit mo ay huwag mo akong sawayin,
ni sa iyong pagkapoot ay huwag mo akong supilin!
2 Sapagkat ang iyong mga palaso sa akin ay tumimo,
at pumisil sa akin ang kamay mo.
3 Walang kaginhawahan sa aking laman
dahil sa iyong kapootan;
walang kalusugan sa aking mga buto
dahil sa aking kasalanan.
4 Sapagkat ang mga kasamaan ko ay nakarating sa ibabaw ng aking ulo,
ang mga iyon ay gaya ng isang pasan na napakabigat para sa akin.
5 Ang aking mga sugat ay mabaho at nagnanana,
dahil sa aking kahangalan.
6 Ako'y yukong-yuko at nakabulagta,
ako'y tumatangis buong araw.
7 Sapagkat nag-iinit ang aking mga balakang,
at walang kaginhawahan sa aking laman.
8 Nanghihina at bugbog ako;
ako'y dumaing dahil sa bagabag ng aking puso.
9 Panginoon, lahat ng aking inaasam ay batid mo;
ang aking hinagpis ay hindi lingid sa iyo.
10 Ang aking puso ay kakaba-kaba, ang aking lakas ay kinakapos,
at ang liwanag ng aking paningin, sa akin ay nawala din.
11 Ang aking mga kaibigan at mga kasamahan ay walang malasakit sa aking kapighatian,
at nakatayong napakalayo ang aking kamag-anakan.
12 Yaong mga nagtatangka sa aking buhay ay naglagay ng kanilang mga bitag,
silang nagsisihanap ng aking ikapapahamak ay nagsasalita ng pagkawasak,
at nag-iisip ng kataksilan sa buong araw.
13 Ngunit ako'y gaya ng taong bingi, hindi ako nakakarinig;
gaya ng taong pipi na hindi nagbubuka ng kanyang bibig.
14 Oo, ako'y gaya ng tao na hindi nakakarinig,
at walang pangangatuwiran sa aking bibig.
15 Ngunit sa iyo ako naghihintay, O Panginoon,
ikaw, O Panginoon kong Diyos ang siyang tutugon.
16 Sapagkat aking sinabi, “Huwag mo lamang hayaang sila'y magalak laban sa akin,
na laban sa akin ay nagmamataas kapag ang paa ko ay nadudulas!”
17 Sapagkat ako'y malapit nang matumba,
at ang aking kirot ay nasa akin tuwina.
18 Ipinahahayag ko ang aking kasamaan;
ako'y punô ng kabalisahan dahil sa aking kasalanan.
19 Yaong aking mga kaaway na walang kadahilanan ay makapangyarihan,
at marami silang napopoot sa akin na wala sa katuwiran.
20 Silang gumaganti ng kasamaan sa aking kabutihan,
ay aking mga kaaway sapagkat sinusunod ko ang kabutihan.
21 O Panginoon, huwag mo akong pabayaan;
O Diyos ko, huwag mo akong layuan!
22 Magmadali kang ako'y tulungan,
O Panginoon, aking kaligtasan!
Psalm 38
New King James Version
Prayer in Time of Chastening
A Psalm of David. (A)To bring to remembrance.
38 O Lord, do not (B)rebuke 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 am [a]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.
10 My heart pants, my strength fails me;
As for the light of my eyes, it also has gone from me.
11 My loved ones and my friends (C)stand aloof from my plague,
And my relatives stand afar off.
12 Those also who seek my life lay snares for me;
Those who seek my hurt speak of destruction,
And plan deception all the day long.
13 But I, like a deaf man, do not hear;
And I am like a mute who does not open his mouth.
14 Thus I am like a man who does not hear,
And in whose mouth is no response.
15 For [b]in You, O Lord, (D)I hope;
You will [c]hear, O Lord my God.
16 For I said, “Hear me, lest they rejoice over me,
Lest, when my foot slips, they exalt themselves against me.”
17 (E)For I am ready to fall,
And my sorrow is continually before me.
18 For I will (F)declare my iniquity;
I will be (G)in [d]anguish over my sin.
19 But my enemies are vigorous, and they are strong;
And those who hate me wrongfully have multiplied.
20 Those also (H)who render evil for good,
They are my adversaries, because I follow what is good.
21 Do not forsake me, O Lord;
O my God, (I)be not far from me!
22 Make haste to help me,
O Lord, my salvation!

Psalm 38
King James Version
38 O Lord, rebuke me not in thy wrath: neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
2 For thine arrows stick fast in me, and thy hand presseth me sore.
3 There is no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither is there any rest in my bones because of my sin.
4 For mine iniquities are gone over mine head: as an heavy burden they are too heavy for me.
5 My wounds stink and are corrupt because of my foolishness.
6 I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long.
7 For my loins are filled with a loathsome disease: and there is no soundness in my flesh.
8 I am feeble and sore broken: I have roared by reason of the disquietness of my heart.
9 Lord, all my desire is before thee; and my groaning is not hid from thee.
10 My heart panteth, my strength faileth me: as for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me.
11 My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my sore; and my kinsmen stand afar off.
12 They also that seek after my life lay snares for me: and they that seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and imagine deceits all the day long.
13 But I, as a deaf man, heard not; and I was as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth.
14 Thus I was as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no reproofs.
15 For in thee, O Lord, do I hope: thou wilt hear, O Lord my God.
16 For I said, Hear me, lest otherwise they should rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.
17 For I am ready to halt, and my sorrow is continually before me.
18 For I will declare mine iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin.
19 But mine enemies are lively, and they are strong: and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied.
20 They also that render evil for good are mine adversaries; because I follow the thing that good is.
21 Forsake me not, O Lord: O my God, be not far from me.
22 Make haste to help me, O Lord my salvation.
