DRC, KJV, VulgClementine - Psalms - 38

38:1  Unto the end, for Idithun himself, a canticle of David.

38:1  O Lord, rebuke me not in thy wrath: neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.

38:1  In finem, ipsi Idithun. Canticum David.

38:2  I said: I will take heed to my ways: that I sin not with my tongue. I have set a guard to my mouth, when the sinner stood against me.

38:2  For thine arrows stick fast in me, and thy hand presseth me sore.

38:2  Dixi : Custodiam vias meas : ut non delinquam in lingua mea. Posui ori meo custodiam, cum consisteret peccator adversum me.

38:3  I was dumb, and was humbled, and kept silence from good things: and my sorrow was renewed.

38:3  There is no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither is there any rest in my bones because of my sin.

38:3  Obmutui, et humiliatus sum, et silui a bonis ; et dolor meus renovatus est.

38:4  My heart grew hot within me: and in my meditation a fire shall flame out.

38:4  For mine iniquities are gone over mine head: as an heavy burden they are too heavy for me.

38:4  Concaluit cor meum intra me ; et in meditatione mea exardescet ignis.

38:5  I spoke with my tongue: O Lord, make me know my end. And what is the number of my days: that I may know what is wanting to me.

38:5  My wounds stink and are corrupt because of my foolishness.

38:5  Locutus sum in lingua mea : Notum fac mihi, Domine, finem meum, et numerum dierum meorum quis est, ut sciam quid desit mihi.

38:6  Behold thou hast made my days measurable. and my substance is as nothing before thee. And indeed all things are vanity: every man living.

38:6  I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long.

38:6  Ecce mensurabiles posuisti dies meos, et substantia mea tamquam nihilum ante te. Verumtamen universa vanitas, omnis homo vivens.

38:7  Surely man passeth as an image: yea, and he is disquieted in vain. He storeth up: and he knoweth not for whom he shall gather these things.

38:7  For my loins are filled with a loathsome disease: and there is no soundness in my flesh.

38:7  Verumtamen in imagine pertransit homo ; sed et frustra conturbatur : thesaurizat, et ignorat cui congregabit ea.

38:8  And now what is my hope? is it not the Lord? and my substance is with thee.

38:8  I am feeble and sore broken: I have roared by reason of the disquietness of my heart.

38:8  Et nunc quæ est exspectatio mea : nonne Dominus ? et substantia mea apud te est.

38:9  Deliver thou me from all my iniquities: thou hast made me a reproach to the fool.

38:9  Lord, all my desire is before thee; and my groaning is not hid from thee.

38:9  Ab omnibus iniquitatibus meis erue me : opprobrium insipienti dedisti me.

38:10  I was dumb, and I opened not my mouth, because thou hast done it.

38:10  My heart panteth, my strength faileth me: as for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me.

38:10  Obmutui, et non aperui os meum, quoniam tu fecisti ;

38:11  Remove thy scourges from me. The strength of thy hand hath made me faint in rebukes:

38:11  My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my sore; and my kinsmen stand afar off.

38:11  amove a me plagas tuas.

38:12  Thou hast corrected man for iniquity. And thou hast made his soul to waste away like a spider: surely in vain is any man disquieted.

38:12  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.

38:12  A fortitudine manus tuæ ego defeci in increpationibus : propter iniquitatem corripuisti hominem. Et tabescere fecisti sicut araneam animam ejus : verumtamen vane conturbatur omnis homo.

38:13  Hear my prayer, O Lord, and my supplication: give ear to my tears. Be no silent: for I am a stranger with thee, and a sojourner as all my fathers were.

38:13  But I, as a deaf man, heard not; and I was as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth.

38:13  Exaudi orationem meam, Domine, et deprecationem meam ; auribus percipe lacrimas meas. Ne sileas, quoniam advena ego sum apud te, et peregrinus sicut omnes patres mei.

38:14  O forgive me, that I may be refreshed, before I go hence, and be no more.

38:14  Thus I was as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no reproofs.

38:14  Remitte mihi, ut refrigerer priusquam abeam et amplius non ero.

38:15  For in thee, O Lord, do I hope: thou wilt hear, O Lord my God.

38:16  For I said, Hear me, lest otherwise they should rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.

38:17  For I am ready to halt, and my sorrow is continually before me.

38:18  For I will declare mine iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin.

38:19  But mine enemies are lively, and they are strong: and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied.

38:20  They also that render evil for good are mine adversaries; because I follow the thing that good is.

38:21  Forsake me not, O Lord: O my God, be not far from me.

38:22  Make haste to help me, O Lord my salvation.
