Psalms 38:16-21 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

16. For I said, “Don’t let them rejoice over me —those who are arrogant toward me when I stumble.”

17. For I am about to fall,and my pain is constantly with me.

18. So I confess my guilt;I am anxious because of my sin.

19. But my enemies are vigorous and powerful; many hate me for no reason.

20. Those who repay evil for goodattack me for pursuing good.

21. Lord, do not abandon me;my God, do not be far from me.
