For my iniquities are gone over my head: as a heavy burden they are too heavy for me.
All Commentaries on Psalms 38:4 Go To Psalms 38
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
Me. They press upon me like a deluge or huge weight. (Calmet)
The sin of David had many aggravations. (Berthier)
His punishment was also great. (Calmet)
His spirit was almost overwhelmed, as the sins which are not bewailed, bring on other transgressions. (Worthington)
It is not so much sin as the neglect of penance, which destroys men. (Berthier)
This folly is here acknowledged by David. (Haydock)
