For day and night your hand was heavy upon me.
My vigor was changed into the dry heat of summer. Selah
I made known my sin to you, and my iniquity I did not cover.
I said, “I will confess concerning my transgressions to Yahweh,”

Surely at the flood of many waters they will not reach him.

For day and night
    your hand was heavy(A) on me;
my strength was sapped(B)
    as in the heat of summer.[a]

Then I acknowledged my sin to you
    and did not cover up my iniquity.(C)
I said, “I will confess(D)
    my transgressions(E) to the Lord.”
And you forgave

    while you may be found;(G)
surely the rising(H) of the mighty waters(I)
    will not reach them.(J)
