< Psalms 6 >

1 O Jehovah, rebuke me not in thine anger, nor chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
O LORD, rebuke me not in your anger, neither chasten me in your hot displeasure.
2 Have mercy upon me, O Jehovah, for I am withered away. O Jehovah, heal me, for my bones are troubled.
Have mercy on me, O LORD; for I am weak: O LORD, heal me; for my bones are vexed.
3 My soul also is greatly troubled. And thou, O Jehovah, how long?
My soul is also sore 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: oh save me for your mercies’ sake.
5 For in death there is no remembrance of thee. In Sheol who shall give thee thanks? (Sheol h7585)
For in death there is no remembrance of you: in the grave who shall give you thanks? (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 weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears.
7 My eye wastes away because of grief. It grows old because of all my adversaries.
My eye is consumed because of grief; it waxes old 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 workers of 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 heard my supplication; the LORD will receive 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 my enemies be ashamed and sore vexed: let them return and be ashamed suddenly.
