Let him take his rod away from me, and let not his fear terrify me:

Withdraw thine hand far from me: and let not thy dread make me afraid.

There is no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither is there any rest in my bones because of my sin. For mine iniquities are gone over mine head: as an heavy burden they are too heavy for me.

Wilt thou also disannul my judgment? wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be righteous?

Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; for I am desolate and afflicted. The troubles of my heart are enlarged: O bring thou me out of my distresses.

For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: my moisture is turned into the drought of summer. Selah.

Wherefore ye shall make images of your emerods, and images of your mice that mar the land; and ye shall give glory unto the God of Israel: peradventure he will lighten his hand from off you, and from off your gods, and from off your land.
