1 A psalm of David. For remembrance.
2 Lord, do not punish me in your anger;in your wrath do not chastise me!
3 Your arrows have sunk deep in me;your hand has come down upon me.
4 There is no wholesomeness in my flesh because of your anger;there is no health in my bones because of my sin.
5 My iniquities overwhelm me,a burden too heavy for me.
6 Foul and festering are my soresbecause of my folly.
7 I am stooped and deeply bowed;every day I go about mourning.
