      Psalm 6 (Listen)

      O Lord, Deliver My Life

      To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments; according to The Sheminith.1 A Psalm of David.

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