For day and night
    Your hand was heavy on me;
my strength was changed
    into the drought of summer. Selah

I acknowledged my sin to You,
    and my iniquity I did not conceal.
I said, “I will confess
    my transgressions to the Lord,”
and You forgave
    the iniquity of my sin. Selah

For this cause everyone who is godly will pray to You
    in a time when You may be found;
surely in the floods of great 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
    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)
