Mazmur 38:3

38:3 My whole body is sick because of your judgment; ¹ 

I am deprived of health because of my sin. ² 

Yesaya 5:25

5:25 So the Lord is furious ³  with his people;

he lifts ⁴  his hand and strikes them.

The mountains shake,

and corpses lie like manure ⁵  in the middle of the streets.

Despite all this, his anger does not subside,

and his hand is ready to strike again. ⁶ 

[38:3]  ¹ tn Heb “there is no soundness in my flesh from before your anger.” “Anger” here refers metonymically to divine judgment, which is the practical effect of God’s anger at the psalmist’s sin.

[38:3]  ² tn Heb “there is no health in my bones from before my sin.”

[5:25]  ³ tn Heb “the anger of the Lord rages.”

[5:25]  ⁴ tn Or “extends”; KJV, ASV “he hath stretched forth.”

[5:25]  ⁵ tn Or “garbage” (NCV, CEV, NLT); NAB, NASB, NIV “refuse.”

[5:25]  ⁶ tn Heb “in all this his anger is not turned, and still his hand is outstretched.”
