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 choirmaster. With stringed instruments, according to Sheminith. A Psalm of David. O LORD, do not rebuke me in Your anger or discipline me in Your wrath.

2 Miserere mei, Domine, quoniam infirmus sum; sana me, Domine, quoniam conturbata sunt ossa mea.

Be merciful to me, O LORD, for I am frail; heal me, O LORD, for my bones are in agony.

3 Et anima mea turbata est valde; sed tu, Domine, usquequo?

My soul is deeply distressed. How long, O LORD, how long?

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

Turn, O LORD, and deliver my soul; save me because of Your loving devotion.

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

For there is no mention of You in death; who can praise You from Sheol? (Sheol h7585)

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

I am weary from groaning; all night I flood my bed with weeping and drench my couch with tears.

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

My eyes fail from grief; they grow dim because of all my foes.

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

Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity, for the LORD has heard my weeping.

9 Exaudivit Dominus deprecationem meam; Dominus orationem meam suscepit.

The LORD has heard my cry for mercy; the LORD accepts my prayer.

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

All my enemies will be ashamed and dismayed; they will turn back in sudden disgrace.
