Psalm 38:6-12 New International Version Anglicized (NIVUK)

6. I am bowed down and brought very low;all day long I go about mourning.

7. My back is filled with searing pain;there is no health in my body.

8. I am feeble and utterly crushed;I groan in anguish of heart.

9. All my longings lie open before you, Lord:my sighing is not hidden from you.

10. My heart pounds, my strength fails me;even the light has gone from my eyes.

11. My friends and companions avoid me because of my wounds;my neighbours stay far away.

12. Those who want to kill me set their traps,those who would harm me talk of my ruin;all day long they scheme and lie.
