Psalm 6

<<To the chief Musician on Neginoth upon Sheminith, A Psalm of David.>>

 

Ps 6:1 ¶ 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.
