Mazmur 38
1 Mazmur Daud waktu mempersembahkan kurban peringatan. TUHAN, jangan menghukum aku dalam kemarahan-Mu, jangan menyiksa aku dalam kemurkaan-Mu.
[A Psalm by David, for a memorial.] LORD, do not rebuke me in your wrath, neither chasten me in your hot displeasure.
2 Panah-Mu menembus melukai tubuhku, tangan-Mu terasa berat menekan aku.
For your arrows have pierced me, your hand presses hard on me.
3 Aku sakit parah karena kemarahan-Mu; tak ada yang sehat pada tubuhku karena dosaku.
There is no soundness in my flesh because of your indignation, neither is there any health in my bones because of my sin.
4 Aku tenggelam dalam banjir kesalahanku, beban dosaku terlalu berat bagiku.
For my iniquities have gone over my head. As a heavy burden, they are too heavy for me.
5 Luka-lukaku bernanah dan berbau busuk, karena aku telah berlaku bodoh.
My wounds are loathsome and corrupt, because of my foolishness.
6 Aku tertunduk dan terbungkuk, sepanjang hari aku murung dan sedih.
I am pained and bowed down greatly. I go mourning all day long.
7 Demam membakar tubuhku, tak ada yang sehat pada badanku.
For my waist is filled with burning. There is no soundness in my flesh.
8 Aku remuk-redam dan kehabisan tenaga, aku merintih karena hatiku resah.
I am faint and severely bruised. I have groaned by reason of the anguish of my heart.
9 TUHAN, Engkau tahu segala keinginanku, keluh kesahku tidak tersembunyi bagi-Mu.
Lord, all my desire is before you. My groaning is not hidden from you.
10 Jantungku berdebar-debar, tenagaku hilang, mataku sudah menjadi pudar.
My heart throbs. My strength fails me. As for the light of my eyes, it has also left me.
11 Handai-taulanku menghindar karena penyakitku, bahkan kaum kerabatku menjauhi aku.
My loved ones and my friends keep their distance because of my affliction. My kinsmen stand far away.
12 Orang yang ingin membunuh aku memasang jerat bagiku; yang ingin mencelakakan aku mengancam hendak menumpas aku.
They also who seek after my life lay snares. Those who seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and meditate deceits all day long.
13 Tetapi aku seperti orang tuli yang tidak mendengar, seperti orang bisu yang tidak bicara.
But I, as a deaf man, do not hear. I am as a mute man who doesn't open his mouth.
14 Sungguh, aku seperti orang yang tidak mendengar, dan karena itu tidak membantah.
Yes, I am as a man who doesn't hear, in whose mouth are no reproofs.
15 Tetapi aku berharap kepada-Mu, ya TUHAN, dan Engkau, TUHAN Allahku, menjawab aku.
For in you, LORD, do I hope. You will answer, LORD my God.
16 Jangan biarkan musuhku senang melihat kesusahanku, jangan biarkan mereka membual bila aku goyah.
For I said, "Do not let them gloat over me, or exalt themselves over me when my foot slips."
17 Aku hampir saja jatuh, terus menerus aku kesakitan.
For I am ready to fall. My pain is continually before me.
18 Aku mengakui dosa-dosaku; hatiku cemas memikirkan kesalahanku.
Yes, I confess my iniquity. I am anxious because of my sin.
19 Orang-orang yang memusuhi aku banyak dan kuat, mereka membenci cara hidupku.
But my enemies, for no reason, are many. Those who hate me wrongfully are numerous.
20 Orang yang membalas kebaikan dengan kejahatan memusuhi aku karena aku melakukan yang baik.
They who also render evil for good are adversaries to me, because I follow what is good.
21 Ya TUHAN, jangan meninggalkan aku, jangan jauh daripadaku, ya Allahku.
Do not forsake me, LORD. My God, do not be far from me.
22 Datanglah segera menolong aku, ya TUHAN penyelamatku.
Hurry to help me, LORD, my salvation.
