1 O Lord, don't punish me in your anger!
2 You have wounded me with your arrows;you have struck me down.
3 Because of your anger, I am in great pain;my whole body is diseased because of my sins.
4 I am drowning in the flood of my sins;they are a burden too heavy to bear.
5 Because I have been foolish,my sores stink and rot.
6 I am bowed down, I am crushed;I mourn all day long.
7 I am burning with feverand I am near to death.
