| Chapter 6 |
1 |
For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments, set to the Sheminith. A Psalm of David. O Jehovah, rebuke me not in thine anger, Neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
|
2 |
Have mercy upon me, O Jehovah; for I am withered away: O Jehovah, heal me; for my bones are troubled.
|
3 |
My soul also is sore troubled: And thou, O Jehovah, how long?
|
4 |
Return, O Jehovah, deliver my soul: Save me for thy lovingkindness' sake.
|
5 |
For in death there is no remembrance of thee: In Sheol who shall give thee thanks?
|
6 |
I am weary with my groaning; Every night make I my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears.
|
7 |
Mine eye wasteth away because of grief; It waxeth old because of all mine adversaries.
|
8 |
Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; For Jehovah hath heard the voice of my weeping.
|
9 |
Jehovah hath heard my supplication; Jehovah will receive my prayer.
|
10 |
All mine enemies shall be put to shame and sore troubled: They shall turn back, they shall be put to shame suddenly.
