Psalms 38:4–8 · Berean Standard Bible

4 For my iniquities have overwhelmed me; they are a burden too heavy to bear.

5 My wounds are foul and festering because of my sinful folly.

6 I am bent and brought low; all day long I go about mourning.

7 For my loins are full of burning pain, and no soundness remains in my body.

8 I am numb and badly crushed; I groan in anguish of heart.
