Psalmorum 6

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

O Yhwh, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.

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

Have mercy upon me, O Yhwh; for I am weak: O Yhwh, heal me; for my bones are vexed.

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

My soul is also sore vexed: but thou, O Yhwh, how long?

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

Return, O Yhwh, deliver my soul: oh save me for thy mercies’ sake.

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

For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave who shall give thee thanks? (Sheol h7585)

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

I am weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears.

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

Mine eye is consumed because of grief; it waxeth old because of all mine enemies.

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

Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for Yhwh hath heard the voice of my weeping.

9 Exaudivit Dominus deprecationem meam; Dominus orationem meam suscepit.

Yhwh hath heard my supplication; Yhwh will receive my prayer.

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

Let all mine enemies be ashamed and sore vexed: let them return and be ashamed suddenly.
