< Psalms 6 >

1 To him that excelleth on Neginoth upon the eith tune. A Psalme of Dauid. O lord, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither chastise me in thy wrath.
O Jehovah, rebuke me not in thine anger, nor chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
2 Haue mercie vpon me, O Lord, for I am weake: O Lord heale me, for my bones are vexed.
Have mercy upon me, O Jehovah, for I am withered away. O Jehovah, heal me, for my bones are troubled.
3 My soule is also sore troubled: but Lord how long wilt thou delay?
My soul also is greatly troubled. And thou, O Jehovah, how long?
4 Returne, O Lord: deliuer my soule: saue me for thy mercies sake.
Return, O Jehovah, deliver my soul. Save me for thy loving kindness' sake.
5 For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the graue who shall prayse thee? (Sheol h7585)
For in death there is no remembrance of thee. In Sheol who shall give thee thanks? (Sheol h7585)
6 I fainted in my mourning: I cause my bed euery night to swimme, and water my couch with my teares.
I am weary with my groaning. Every night I make my bed to swim. I water my couch with my tears.
7 Mine eye is dimmed for despight, and sunke in because of all mine enemies.
My eye wastes away because of grief. It grows old because of all my adversaries.
8 Away from mee all ye workers of iniquitie: for the Lord hath heard the voyce of my weeping.
Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity, for Jehovah has heard the voice of my weeping.
9 The Lord hath heard my petition: the Lord will receiue my prayer.
Jehovah has heard my supplication. Jehovah will receive my prayer.
10 All mine enemies shall be confounded and sore vexed: they shall be turned backe, and put to shame suddenly.
All my enemies shall be put to shame and greatly troubled. They shall turn back. They shall be put to shame suddenly.
