There is no soundness in my flesh because of your indignation; there is no health in my bones because of my sin. For my iniquities have gone over my head; like a heavy burden, they are too heavy for me. My wounds stink and fester because of my foolishness,
I am a totally disgusting sight but I could not see it, even considered myself as a fine example of rectitude in my blindness, until You opened my eyes through Your perfect and holy Law. Now I know how foul I really am, the stench of my good works and the putrid state of my religiosity. Praise You, Lord, for this revelation.
