Psalms 38:5 — Meaning and Application

{There is} no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither {is there any} rest in my bones because of my sin. {rest: Heb. peace, or, health}

For mine iniquities are gone over mine head: as an heavy burden they are too heavy for me.

My wounds stink {and} are corrupt because of my foolishness.

I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long. {troubled: Heb. wried}

For my loins are filled with a loathsome {disease}: and {there is} no soundness in my flesh.
