Psalm 38
1. David moves God to take compassion on his pitiful case














(7) Loathsome disease.--The Hebrew word is a passive participle of a verb meaning to scorch, and here means inflamed or inflammation. Ewald renders "ulcers." The LXX. and Vulg., deriving from another root meaning to be light, or made light of, render "mockings."

Verse 7. - For my loins are filled with a loathsome disease; my loins are full of burning (Kay, Revised Version). A burning pain in the lumbar region is apparently intended. And there is no soundness in my flesh. Repeated from ver. 3.
