Like Psalm 51, 38 "memorializes" the impact of sin on David's life and how he responds. See Ps. 70 on "memorial" Psalms Vs. 3-12 describe the depth of consequences David faces because of his sin. He is effected physically (vs. 3-8), emotionally (vs. 6b, 8b, 9-10), relationally, with both his friends (vs. 11), and enemies (vs. 12) Vs. 13-17 describe David's response. He is still before his enemies (13-14), but hoping in God to respond - to answer to himself, and his enemies (vs. 15-16) Though a matter of interpretation, I see 18-22 as David's final cry for help. ≈He states his reason for his cry: though he is confessing his sin, though he has hoped in God, things aren't getting better, his enemies aren't giving up on harming him (vs. 18-19), and they are continuing to accuse him because David pursues something they don't (vs. 20). Based on those reasons, David calls out to God to draw close and help him.

Psalms

Psalms 38:1-22

OT

nasb

esv

A Psalm of David, for a memorial. O LORD, rebuke me not in Your wrath,

O LORD, rebuke me not in your anger,

And chasten me not in Your burning anger.

nor discipline me in your wrath!

For Your arrows have sunk deep into me,

For your arrows have sunk into me,

And Your hand has pressed down on me.

and your hand has come down on me.

ground

There is no soundness in my flesh because of Your indignation;

There is no soundness in my flesh because of your indignation;

There is no health in my bones because of my sin.

there is no health in my bones because of my sin.

series

For my iniquities are gone over my head;

For my iniquities have gone over my head;

As a heavy burden they weigh too much for me.

like a heavy burden, they are too heavy for me.

My wounds grow foul and fester Because of my folly.

My wounds stink and fester because of my foolishness,

I am bent over and greatly bowed down;

I am utterly bowed down and prostrate;

I go mourning all day long.

all the day I go about mourning.

For my loins are filled with burning,

For my sides are filled with burning,

And there is no soundness in my flesh.

and there is no soundness in my flesh.

I am benumbed and badly crushed;

I am feeble and crushed;

I groan because of the agitation of my heart.

I groan because of the tumult of my heart.

Lord, all my desire is before You;

O Lord, all my longing is before you;

And my sighing is not hidden from You.

my sighing is not hidden from you.

My heart throbs,

My heart throbs;

my strength fails me;

my strength fails me,

And the light of my eyes, even that has gone from me.

and the light of my eyes-- it also has gone from me.

My loved ones and my friends stand aloof from my plague;

My friends and companions stand aloof from my plague,

And my kinsmen stand afar off.

and my nearest kin stand far off.

Those who seek my life lay snares for me;

Those who seek my life lay their snares;

And those who seek to injure me have threatened destruction,

those who seek my hurt speak of ruin

And they devise treachery all day long.

and meditate treachery all day long.

But I, like a deaf man, do not hear;

But I am like a deaf man;

And I am like a mute man who does not open his mouth.

I do not hear, like a mute man who does not open his mouth.

Yes, I am like a man who does not hear, And in whose mouth are no arguments.

I have become like a man who does not hear, and in whose mouth are no rebukes.

For I hope in You, O LORD;

But for you, O LORD, do I wait;

You will answer, O Lord my God.

it is you, O Lord my God, who will answer.

For I said, "May they not rejoice over me, Who, when my foot slips, would magnify themselves against me."

For I said, "Only let them not rejoice over me, who boast against me when my foot slips!"

For I am ready to fall,

For I am ready to fall,

And my sorrow is continually before me.

and my pain is ever before me.

negativepositive

situationresponse

For I confess my iniquity;

I confess my iniquity;

I am full of anxiety because of my sin.

I am sorry for my sin.

But my enemies are vigorous

But my foes are vigorous,

and strong,

they are mighty,

And many are those who hate me wrongfully.

and many are those who hate me wrongfully.

And those who repay evil for good, They oppose me,

Those who render me evil for good accuse me

because I follow what is good.

because I follow after good.

concessive

Do not forsake me, O LORD;

Do not forsake me, O LORD!

O my God, do not be far from me!

O my God, be not far from me!

Make haste to help me, O Lord, my salvation!

Make haste to help me, O Lord, my salvation!
