Prayer of a suffering penitent.
A Psalm of David, Or, to make memorial to bring to remembrance.
3For thy arrows have sunk into me, and thy hand has come down on me.
4There is no soundness in my flesh because of thy indignation; there is no health in my bones because of my sin.
5For my iniquities have gone over my head; they weigh like a burden too heavy for me.
Psalms 38:3-5 (RSV)
