For I am about to fall,
and my pain is ever with me.
I confess my iniquity;
I am troubled by my sin.
Many have become my enemies without cause;
those who hate me without reason are numerous.
Those who repay my good with evil
lodge accusations against me,
though I seek only to do what is good.Lord, do not forsake me;
Psalm 38
do not be far from me, my God.
Come quickly to help me,
my Lord and my Saviour.
