< 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 LORD, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither 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 Lord; for I am weak: O Lord, heal me; for my bones are vexed.
3 My soule is also sore troubled: but Lord how long wilt thou delay?
My soul is also sore vexed: but thou, O Lord, how long?
4 Returne, O Lord: deliuer my soule: saue me for thy mercies sake.
Return, O Lord, deliver my soul: oh save me for thy mercies’ 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 the grave 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; all the night make I 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.
Mine eye is consumed because of grief; it waxeth old because of all mine enemies.
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 the Lord hath heard the voice of my weeping.
9 The Lord hath heard my petition: the Lord will receiue my prayer.
The Lord hath heard my supplication; the Lord will receive my prayer.
10 All mine enemies shall be confounded and sore vexed: they shall be turned backe, and put to shame suddenly.
Let all mine enemies be ashamed and sore vexed: let them return and be ashamed suddenly.
