Psalm 38:17

Holy Bible: Easy-to-Read Version

I know I am guilty of doing wrong. I cannot forget my pain.

See the chapter Copy

But when I had troubles, they laughed at me. They were not really friends. I was surrounded and attacked by people I didn’t even know.

I am bent and bowed down. I am depressed all day long.

Lord, I am so weak. I cried to you all night. My pillow is soaked; my bed is dripping wet from my tears.

But I trust in your faithful love, Lord. I will be happy when you save me.

Don’t let my lying enemies keep on laughing at me. They have no reason to hate me. Surely they will be punished for their secret plans.
