The American Standard Version of 1901

Psalms 6

1

For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments, set to 1 the Sheminith. A Psalm of David. O Jehovah, rebuke me not in thine anger, Neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure. 1) Or the eighth

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.
