Psalm 6:1-10
To the Chief Musician, with stringed Instruments upon the eighth. A Melody of David.
6 O Yahweh! do not in thine anger correct me, Nor in thy wrath chastise me.
2 Shew me favour, O Yahweh, for languishing am I: Heal me, O Yahweh,—for dismayed are my bones:
3 Yea my soul is dismayed greatly, Thou then, O Yahweh—how long?
4 Return, O Yahweh, deliver my soul, Save me for the sake of thy lovingkindness;
5 For in death is no remembrance of thee,—In hades who shall give thanks unto thee?
6 I am weary with my sighing, I flood through the whole night my couch,—With my tears I cause my bed to dissolve:
7 My face is all sunken with sorrow,—It hath aged because of all mine adversaries.
8 Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity, For Yahweh hath heard the voice of my weeping:
9 Yahweh hath heard my supplication, Yahweh will receive my prayer.
10 Let all my foes turn pale and be greatly dismayed, Again let them turn pale in a moment.
