[an error occurred while processing this directive] Parallel ISV [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
[an error occurred while processing this directive]International Standard Version
1[an error occurred while processing this directive]1LORD! Do not rebuke me in your anger; do not correct me in your wrath,
2[an error occurred while processing this directive]2because your arrows have sunk deep into me, and your hand has come down hard on me.
3[an error occurred while processing this directive]3My body is unhealthy due to your anger, and my bones have no rest due to my sin.
4[an error occurred while processing this directive]4My iniquities loom over my head; like a cumbersome burden, they are too heavy for me.
5[an error occurred while processing this directive]5My wounds have putrefied and festered because of my foolishness.
6[an error occurred while processing this directive]6I am bent over and walk about greatly bowed down; all day long I go around mourning.
7[an error occurred while processing this directive]7My insides are burning and my body is unhealthy.
8[an error occurred while processing this directive]8I am weak and utterly crushed; I cry out in distress because of my heart's anguish.
9[an error occurred while processing this directive]9Lord, all my longings are before you, and my groaning is not hidden from you.
10[an error occurred while processing this directive]10My heart pounds, my strength fails me, even the gleam in my eye is gone.
11[an error occurred while processing this directive]11As for my friends and my neighbors, they stand aloof from my distress; even my close relatives stand at a distance.
12[an error occurred while processing this directive]12Those who seek my life lay snares for me; those who seek to do me harm brag all day long about their wicked planning.
13[an error occurred while processing this directive]13I am like the deaf, who cannot hear, and like the mute, who cannot open his mouth.
14[an error occurred while processing this directive]14Indeed, I have become like a man who hears nothing, and in whose mouth there is no rebuke.
15[an error occurred while processing this directive]15Because I have placed my hope in you, LORD, you will answer, Lord, my God.
16[an error occurred while processing this directive]16For I said, "Do not let them gloat over me, as they congratulate themselves when my foot slips."
17[an error occurred while processing this directive]17Indeed, I am being set up for a fall, and I am continuously reminded of my pain.
18[an error occurred while processing this directive]18I confess my iniquity, and my sin troubles me.
19[an error occurred while processing this directive]19But my enemies are alive and well; those who hate me for no reason are numerous.
20[an error occurred while processing this directive]20They reward my good with evil, opposing me because I seek to do good.
21[an error occurred while processing this directive]21Don't forsake me, LORD. My God, do not be so distant from me.
22[an error occurred while processing this directive]22Come quickly and help me, Lord, my deliverer.
