like a fore burden too heauie for me to beare.
My wounds stinke, & are corrupt: through my foolishnes.
I am brought into so great trouble and nuserie: that I go mourning all the day long.
for my loines are filled with a fore disease: and there is no whole part in my bodie.
I am feeble and fore smitten: I haue roared for the very difquietnesse of my heart.
Lord, thou knowest all my desire: and my groning is not hid from thee.
My heart panteth, my strength hath failed mee: and the sight of mine eyes is gone from mee.
My louers and my neighbours did stand looking vpon my trouble: and my kinsmen stood a farre off.
They also that sought after my life, laide snares for mee: and they that went about to doe me euil, talked of wickedones, and imagined deceite all the day long.
As for me, I was like a deafe man, and heard: not: and as one that is dumbe, which doeth not open his mouth.
I became euen as a man that heareth not: and in whole mouth are no reprooses.
For in thee, O Lord, haue I put my trust: thou shall an∣swere for me, O Lord my God.
I haue required that they (euen mine enemies)sould not triumph ouer mee: for when my foote sltpt, they reioyced greatly against me.
And I truely am set in the plague; and my heauines is e∣uer in my sight.
For I will confesse my wickednes: & be forie for my sinne.
But mine enemies liue, and are mightie: and they that hate me wrongfully, are many in number.
They also that reward euill for good, are against mee: be∣cause I follow the thing that good is.
Forsake me not, O Lord my God: be not thou far frō me. Haste thee to helpe me: O Lord God my faluation.
