Day and night
    you punished me.
I became weaker and weaker
    as I do in the heat of summer.
Then I admitted my sin to you.
    I didn’t cover up the wrong I had done.
I said, “I will admit my lawless acts to the Lord.”
    And you forgave the guilt of my sin.

Let everyone who is faithful pray to you
    while they can still look to you.
When troubles come like a flood,
    they certainly won’t reach those who are faithful.

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
    the guilt of my sin.(F)

Therefore let all the faithful pray to you
    while you may be found;(G)
surely the rising(H) of the mighty waters(I)
    will not reach them.(J)
