Psalms 6

1

O Yahweh, don't rebuke me in your anger, Neither discipline me in your wrath.

2

Have mercy on me, O Yahweh, for I am faint. O Yahweh, heal me, for my bones are troubled.

3

My soul is also in great anguish. But you, O Yahweh -- how long?

4

Return, O Yahweh. Deliver my soul, And save me for your lovingkindness' sake.

5

For in death there is no remembrance of you. In Sheol, who shall give you thanks?

6

I am weary with my groaning; Every night I flood my bed; I drench my couch with my tears.

7

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

8

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

9

Yahweh has heard my supplication. Yahweh will receive my prayer.

10

May all my enemies be ashamed and dismayed. They shall turn back, they shall be disgraced suddenly.

A meditation by David, which he sang to Yahweh, concerning the words of Cush, the Benjamite.
