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

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

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

4 Return, O Lord , deliver my soul: oh save me for thy mercies' sake.

5 For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave who shall give thee thanks?

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

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

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

9 The Lord hath heard my supplication; the Lord will receive my prayer.

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

To the director: With stringed instruments, on the sheminith. A song of David.

6 Lord , don’t punish me.
Don’t correct me when you are so angry.
2 Lord , be kind to me.
I am sick and weak.
Heal me, Lord !
My bones are shaking.
3 I am trembling all over.
Lord , how long until you heal me? [ a ]
4 Lord , come back and make me strong again.
Save me because you are so loyal and kind.
5 If I am dead, I cannot sing about you.
Those in the grave don’t praise you.

6 Lord, I am so weak.
I cried to you all night.
My pillow is soaked;
my bed is dripping wet from my tears.
7 My enemies have caused me such sorrow
that my eyes are worn out from crying.

8 Go away, you wicked people,
because the Lord has heard my cries.
9 The Lord has heard my request for mercy.
The Lord has accepted my prayer.

10 All my enemies will be filled with fear and shame.
They will be sorry when disgrace suddenly comes upon them.
