Psalmorum 6

1 In finem in carminibus, Psalmus David, pro octava. Domine, ne in furore tuo arguas me, neque in ira tua corripias me.

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 Miserere mei Domine quoniam infirmus sum: sana me Domine quoniam conturbata sunt ossa mea,

Pity me, O Lord; for I am weak: heal me, O Lord; for my bones are vexed.

3 et anima mea turbata est valde: sed tu Domine usquequo?

My soul also is grievously vexed: but you, O Lord, how long?

4 Convertere Domine, et eripe animam meam: salvum me fac propter misericordiam tuam.

Return, O Lord, deliver my soul: save me for your mercy's sake.

5 Quoniam non est in morte qui memor sit tui: in inferno autem quis confitebitur tibi? (Sheol h7585)

For in death no man remembers you: and who will give you thanks in Hades? (Sheol h7585)

6 Laboravi in gemitu meo, lavabo per singulas noctes lectum meum: lacrymis meis stratum meum rigabo.

I am wearied with my groaning; I shall wash my bed every night; I shall water my couch with tears.

7 Turbatus est a furore oculus meus: inveteravi inter omnes inimicos meos.

Mine eye is troubled because of my wrath; I am worn out because of all my enemies.

8 Discedite a me omnes qui operamini iniquitatem: quoniam exaudivit Dominus vocem fletus mei.

Depart from me, all you that work iniquity; for the Lord has heard the voice of my weeping.

9 Exaudivit Dominus deprecationem meam, Dominus orationem meam suscepit.

The Lord has listened to my petition; the Lord has accepted my prayer.

10 Erubescant, et conturbentur vehementer omnes inimici mei: convertantur et erubescant valde velociter.

Let all mine enemies be put to shame and sore troubled: let them be turned back and grievously put to shame speedily.
