< Psalms 6 >

1 To the ouercomere in salmes, the salm of Dauid, `on the eiythe. Lord, repreue thou not me in thi stronge veniaunce; nether chastice thou me in thin ire. 2 Lord, haue thou merci on me, for Y am sijk; Lord, make thou me hool, for alle my boonys ben troblid. 3 And my soule is troblid greetli; but thou, Lord, hou long? 4 Lord, be thou conuertid, and delyuere my soule; make thou me saaf, for thi merci. 5 For noon is in deeth, which is myndful of thee; but in helle who schal knouleche to thee? (Sheol h7585) 6 I traueilide in my weilyng, Y schal waische my bed bi ech nyyt; Y schal moiste, `ether make weet, my bedstre with my teeris. 7 Myn iye is disturblid of woodnesse; Y waxe eld among alle myn enemyes. 8 Alle ye that worchen wickidnesse, departe fro me; for the Lord hath herd the vois of my wepyng. 9 The Lord hath herd my bisechyng; the Lord hath resseyued my preier. 10 Alle my enemyes be aschamed, and be disturblid greetli; be thei turned togidere, and be thei aschamed ful swiftli.
