SEV Biblia, Chapter 38:8

Estoy debilitado y molido en gran manera; bramo a causa del alboroto de mi corazón.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Psalms 37:8

Verse 8. I am feeble and sore broken ] I am so exhausted with my disease that I feel as if on the brink of the grave, and unfit to appear before God; therefore "have I roared for the disquietness of my heart." That David describes a natural disease here cannot reasonably be doubted; but what that disease was, who shall attempt to say? However, this is evident, that whatever it was, he most deeply deplored the cause of it; and as he worthily lamented it, so he found mercy at the hand of God. It would be easy to show a disease of which what he here enumerates are the very general symptoms; but I forbear, because in this I might attribute to one what, perhaps, in Judea would be more especially descriptive of another.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 1-11 - Nothing will disquiet the heart of a good man so much as the sense of God's anger. The way to keep the heart quiet, is to keep ourselves in the love of God. But a sense of guilt is too heavy to bear; and woul sink men into despair and ruin, unless removed by the pardoning merc of God. If there were not sin in our souls, there would be no pain in our bones, no illness in our bodies. The guilt of sin is a burden to the whole creation, which groans under it. It will be a burden to the sinners themselves, when they are heavy-laden under it, or a burden of ruin, when it sinks them to hell. When we perceive our true condition the Good Physician will be valued, sought, and obeyed. Yet many le their wounds rankle, because they delay to go to their merciful Friend When, at any time, we are distempered in our bodies, we ought to remember how God has been dishonoured in and by our bodies. The groanings which cannot be uttered, are not hid from Him that searche the heart, and knows the mind of the Spirit. David, in his troubles was a type of Christ in his agonies, of Christ on his cross, sufferin and deserted.
