Psalm 6

To the *chief Musician on *Neginoth ||*upon Sheminith, A Psalm of David.

1  O aLord, rebuke me not in thine anger,

Neither bchasten me in thy hot displeasure.

2  cHave mercy upon me, O Lord; for I am weak:

O Lord, dheal me; for my bones eare vexed.

3  My soul is also sore evexed:

But thou, O Lord, fhow long?

4  ffReturn, O Lord, deliver my soul:

Oh save me for thy mercies’ sake.

5  gFor in death there is no remembrance of thee:

In the grave who shall give thee thanks?

6  ggI am weary with hmy groaning;

||All the night make I my bed to swim;

I water my couch with my tears.

7  iMine eye is consumed because of grief;

It waxeth old because of all mine enemies.

8  jDepart from me, all kye workers of iniquity;

For lthe Lord hath heard the voice of my weeping.

9  The Lord hath heard my msupplication;

The Lord will receive my mprayer.

10  Let all mine enemies be ashamed and sore evexed:

Let them nreturn and be ashamed suddenly.
