Chapter
38
{Also
- with Psalms Chapter 32 - an 'Operation Bathsheba' Psalm -
David Refuses to Rebound - Perpetual Discipline
David's Pre-Rebound Suffering}
1~~{Title}
A Psalm/Melody {mizmowr} of David . . .
to
'cause him to remember'/'to stimulate his memory' {zakar}
{David never wanted to forget the pain and 'slap' for staying
out of fellowship for a year and not rebounding}.
O
Jehovah/God, do not cause me to be punished
in
Your anger/wrath . . .
nor
intensively discipline me in Your wrath/'hot displeasure'.
{Note: David entered into sexual arrogance when he had an affair with Bathsheba. For almost a year, David did not confess his sins to God and was out of fellowship and actively engaged in evil - including ordering an attack that would be the sure death of Bathsheba's husband Uriah the Hittite. This Psalm ties to the Divine Discipline that God placed on David. See also II Samuel Chapter 12.}
{Maximum
Pressure from God}
2~~For
Your arrows have sunk deep into me,
and
Your hand has come down on me {a slap}.
{Note: Two categories of pain - inner pain and exterior pain. The slap is David's own arrogant hyper-sensitivity.}
3~~Because
of Your wrath/anger,
there
is no health/soundness in my body.
Nor
is there any health/rest in my bones
because
of my sin {chatta'ah}
{idiom: meaning he is hyper-sensitive - 'I feel it in my bones'
meaning you feel so bad, you feel it in your bones - unbearable
suffering includes sleep deprivation}.
{Note: David is preoccupied with himself. People in this state have no appetite and then do not sleep. So in the arrogance complex, David's health is going.}
4~~For
my iniquities {`avon - RBT says this is sin plus arrogance}
have
passed through my head
{meaning David is moving into a psychosis - self-righteousness
plus self-pity and a guilt complex is moving him into psychotic
arrogance (mental illness) - unresolved guilt without rebound
moves into a psychosis}
Like a heavy burden . . . they are too heavy for me.
5~~My
wounds stink/'have a bad odor' {not literal}
{David is hyper-sensitive at this time and can not stand himself in
his sins}.
They
have festered because of my 'state of being foolish'
{'ivveleth - means to be smart but act absolutely stupid at the
same time - arrogance causes this state arrogance lowers your
IQ to zero}.
6~~I
{David} am bent . . .
I
am bowed down very low
{meaning David is humbled by discipline}.
All
the day, I 'my marching'/'my manner of life'
'is
constantly dark'/'is meaningless'.
7~~For
my loins are filled with inflammation
{neurosis -a nervous wreck - 'nerves on end'}
That is why there is no health/soundness in my body.
8~~I
am debilitated
{no 'nervous energy' which is needed to think}.
I am terribly feeble and utterly crushed.
I
started screaming and screaming {David's crack up begins}
because
of the groaning of my 'right lobe'/heart
{psychopathic arrogance of David in prolonged period of out of
fellowship and in evil}.
9~~Oh
Lord/'Adonay, all my desire is manifest to You
{David realizes he does want to get straightened out with the Lord
thinks about something other than himself}.
And my 'expression of grief'/groaning is not hidden from You.
10~~My heart pounds.
My strength has failed me.
And
the light has gone out of my eyes.
{loss of capacity for life, love, happiness}.
11~~My
lovers and my friends avoid me . . .
because
of my calamity
{they are embarrassed to be around David because he is being
in such a state of foolishness from his arrogance}.
And my loved ones stand aloof.
12~~Those
who seek my life . . .
'set
their traps'/'conspire against me'
{David's paranoia - persecution complex - can be true, but this is a
mental crackup!}.
And those who would harm me, plan my ruin.
All day long they plot treachery against me.
13~~But
I {David} am like a deaf man . . . I hear not
{being in unbearable suffering David can not think. In the day this
was written a person could have a high IQ but if they were deaf
it was very very difficult to learn since most teaching was verbal
communication}.
And
I am like a deaf mute who does not open his mouth
{idiom: today we would say 'like a man who can not learn'}.
14~~There are no answers . . . no understanding.
15~~For
in You, O Jehovah/God,
do
I 'wait in unbearable pain' {yachal - Hiphil stem}.
You will answer me, O Lord/'Adonay my 'Elohiym/Godhead.
16~~For
I {David} said/'screamed in my prayers',
"Do
not let them gloat
or
exalt themselves over me."
{David
Finally Rebounds (Same Principal as found in I John 1:9)}
17~~For
I {David} am adjusting for halt
{meaning to adjust to halt his Walking in evil and rebounding to
fellowship}
because
my unbearable suffering is constantly with me.
18~~For
{ki - explanatory conjunction - like gar in the Greek}
I
{David} will declare/name/acknowledge/confess my iniquity
{`avon - is in the singular in that all his sins are rolled into one
in
David's year of interlocking systems of arrogance}.
I
am troubled/concerned/uneasy {da'ag}
because
of my sin.
19``For my mortal enemies are numerous.
My treacherous foes are many.
20``Those
who repay evil for good
harass
me for pursuing good.
38:21`` Forsake me not, Jehovah/God my 'Elohiym/Godhead.
Be not far from me.
22``
Make haste to help me,
O
Lord/'Adonay . . . my deliverance/salvation.
