Chapter 6

Psalms

Verse 1O LORD, rebuke me not in your anger,nor discipline me in your wrath.Verse 2Be gracious to me, O LORD, for I am languishing;heal me, O LORD, for my bones are troubled.Verse 3My soul also is greatly troubled.But you, O LORD—how long?Verse 4Turn, O LORD, deliver my life;save me for the sake of your steadfast love.Verse 5For in death there is no remembrance of you;in Sheol who will give you praise?Verse 6I am weary with my moaning;every night I flood my bed with tears;I drench my couch with my weeping.Verse 7My eye wastes away because of grief;it grows weak because of all my foes.Verse 8Depart from me, all you workers of evil,for the LORD has heard the sound of my weeping.Verse 9The LORD has heard my plea;the LORD accepts my prayer.Verse 10All my enemies shall be ashamed and greatly troubled;they shall turn back and be put to shame in a moment.
