23 “How many are my iniquities and sins [that so much sorrow should come to me]? Make me recognize and understand my transgression and my sin. 24 “Why do You hide Your face [as if offended] And consider me Your enemy? 25 “Will You cause a windblown leaf to tremble? Will You pursue the chaff of the dry stubble? 26 “For You write bitter things against me [in Your indictment] And make me inherit and suffer for the iniquities of my youth. 27 “You also put my feet in the stocks [as punishment] And [critically] observe all my paths; You set a circle and limit around the soles of my feet [which I must not overstep], 28 While I waste away like a rotten thing, Like a garment that is moth-eaten.
