Psalms 38:5 in Context — Psalms 38

3 No hay sanidad en mi carne á causa de tu ira; ni hay paz en mis huesos á causa de mi pecado.

4 Porque mis iniquidades han pasado mi cabeza: como carga pesada se han agravado sobre mí.

5 Pudriéronse, corrompiéronse mis llagas, á causa de mi locura.

6 Estoy encorvado, estoy humillado en gran manera, ando enlutado todo el día.

7 Porque mis lomos están llenos de irritación, y no hay sanidad en mi carne.
