Psalms 6

¹O Lord , do not rebuke me in Your anger,
Nor chasten me in Your hot displeasure.

²Have mercy on me, O Lord , for I am weak; O Lord , heal me, for my bones are troubled.

³My soul also is greatly troubled; But You, O Lord —how long?

⁴Return, O Lord , deliver me!
Oh, save me for Your mercies’ sake!

⁵For in death there is no remembrance of You; In the grave who will give You thanks?

⁶I am weary with my groaning;
All night I make my bed swim; I drench my couch with my tears.

⁷My eye wastes away because of grief; It grows old because of all my enemies.

⁸Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity;
For the Lord has heard the voice of my weeping.

⁹The Lord has heard my supplication; The Lord will receive my prayer.

¹⁰Let all my enemies be ashamed and greatly troubled; Let them turn back and be ashamed suddenly.
