"Neither is there any health in my bones because of my sin" (38:3). Does this psalm say that illness comes from sin?

Psalm 32's notes take up this question, with this verse beside Psalm 32:3, and with Job and Jesus' answer about the man born blind (John 9:3); these notes don't repeat them. Here is what Psalm 38 adds. In one verse the psalmist gives two reasons side by side, "because of your indignation" and "because of my sin" (38:3), and then a third, "because of my foolishness" (38:5). He says it of himself, in a prayer to the LORD, and he speaks of no other person's illness. Psalm 6 opens with almost the same words (Psalm 6:1) and never names a sin. So the Psalms hold both: a sufferer who names his sin, and one who doesn't. Psalm 38 tells what one man said of his own body and his own sin. It makes no rule for anyone else, and these notes don't make one.
