Psalm 38 is often taught as a Psalm of repentance. The moral position of this psalm is strategically placed in the historical context of the Reformed Confession Doctrine. We are warned that God is punishing us for our sins. They teach that the focus of the penitent poem is confession. In order to simply discover the harm of sin, we need to be disciplined. They quoted the teachings of Judaism that fathers desire sons by punishing them. Discipline is very painful.
As a general rule, we are ordered to respectfully submit our ethical thoughts to all scriptures. When we articulate our thoughts in the Bible, we need to examine every word in the psalms and chapters, so we put these words in the core context of any disturbing psalms.I have studied the Psalms and meditated for 40 years. In addition to learning words, we also need to understand the culture of using words in common phrases. We need to understand the language that describes the poet's experience. Of course I found out. The recitation of chants 100,000 times in prayers must be carefully written in the historical context; each poem is recited with heart. Not all poets’ formal complaints are related to sin.
. Modern theologians do not include the obvious doctrine of the eternal curse. When a sacred word is missing from moral teaching, the specific context of other words will change. When we deliberately omit the eternal curse from any given text, we will inevitably change the purpose of the Psalms, the moral nature of sin, our consistent worldview, and our historical relationship with spiritual authority. When we add the doctrine of curses to the Psalm of Repentance, we change the purpose of the Psalm. The poet publicly confessed his pain. He expressed his self-confidence, declared him innocent because of his inner nature, and ultimately manipulated the curse on his enemies.
If we look at the Psalm on the surface and had a curse, it will not come to confess his sins, but will complain about the pain of corruption and curse his enemies. However, if we ignore the clearly written words in the scriptures, we can teach that the psalms of repentance are written for repentance.
When we say that the psalm of repentance teaches repentance, we are focusing on ourselves to accept God's forgiveness.But to get rid of the eternal curse, the special purpose of the Psalms is to look outward, not inward; the Psalms does not teach us that if we do not repent through exposing the curse, we will not get better, but teach us to intervene in battle than to focus on us  We do not accept the uninterrupted sacred word chain that is common in the Bible.
