Psalms 6
1 To him that excelleth on Neginoth upon the eith tune. A Psalme of Dauid. O lord, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither chastise me in thy wrath.
For the End, a Psalm of David among the Hymns for the eighth. O Lord, rebuke me not in thy wrath, neither chasten me in thine anger.
2 Haue mercie vpon me, O Lord, for I am weake: O Lord heale me, for my bones are vexed.
Pity me, O Lord; for I am weak: heal me, O Lord; for my bones are vexed.
3 My soule is also sore troubled: but Lord how long wilt thou delay?
My soul also is grievously vexed: but thou, O Lord, how long?
4 Returne, O Lord: deliuer my soule: saue me for thy mercies sake.
Return, O Lord, deliver my soul: save me for thy mercy's sake.
For in death no man remembers thee: and who will give thee thanks in Hades? (Sheol h7585)
6 I fainted in my mourning: I cause my bed euery night to swimme, and water my couch with my teares.
I am wearied with my groaning; I shall wash my bed every night; I shall water my couch with tears.
7 Mine eye is dimmed for despight, and sunke in because of all mine enemies.
Mine eye is troubled because of my wrath; I am worn out because of all my enemies.
8 Away from mee all ye workers of iniquitie: for the Lord hath heard the voyce of my weeping.
Depart from me, all ye that work iniquity; for the Lord has heard the voice of my weeping.
9 The Lord hath heard my petition: the Lord will receiue my prayer.
The Lord has hearkened to my petition; the Lord has accepted my prayer.
10 All mine enemies shall be confounded and sore vexed: they shall be turned backe, and put to shame suddenly.
Let all mine enemies be put to shame and sore troubled: let them be turned back and grievously put to shame speedily.
