Psalm 38:1-3
EasyEnglish Bible

David wrote this song to ask God not to forget him.

Lord, please remember me[a]

38 Lord, when you are angry,
    please do not punish me.
2 You have shot your arrows deep into me.
    Your hand has pushed me down to the ground.[b]
3 Your punishment has made my whole body ill.
    My health has gone, because of my sin.
