Psalms 6
1 O Jehovah, rebuke me not in thine anger, nor chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
For the End, a Psalm of David amongst the Hymns for the eighth. O Lord, rebuke me not in your wrath, neither chasten me in your anger.
2 Have mercy upon me, O Jehovah, for I am withered away. O Jehovah, heal me, for my bones are troubled.
Pity me, O Lord; for I am weak: heal me, O Lord; for my bones are vexed.
3 My soul also is greatly troubled. And thou, O Jehovah, how long?
My soul also is grievously vexed: but you, O Lord, how long?
4 Return, O Jehovah, deliver my soul. Save me for thy loving kindness' sake.
Return, O Lord, deliver my soul: save me for your mercy's sake.
For in death no man remembers you: and who will give you thanks in Hades? (Sheol h7585)
6 I am weary with my groaning. Every night I make my bed to swim. I water my couch with my tears.
I am wearied with my groaning; I shall wash my bed every night; I shall water my couch with tears.
7 My eye wastes away because of grief. It grows old because of all my adversaries.
Mine eye is troubled because of my wrath; I am worn out because of all my enemies.
8 Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity, for Jehovah has heard the voice of my weeping.
Depart from me, all you that work iniquity; for the Lord has heard the voice of my weeping.
9 Jehovah has heard my supplication. Jehovah will receive my prayer.
The Lord has listened to my petition; the Lord has accepted my prayer.
10 All my enemies shall be put to shame and greatly troubled. They shall turn back. They shall be put to shame suddenly.
Let all mine enemies be put to shame and sore troubled: let them be turned back and grievously put to shame speedily.
