Psalms 6:1-6
1
Psalm 6
For the director of music. With stringed instruments. According to sheminith. A psalm of David.
O Lord, do not rebuke me in your anger
or discipline me in your wrath.
2
Be merciful to me, Lord, for I am faint;
O Lord, heal me, for my bones are in agony.
3
My soul is in anguish.
How long, O Lord, how long?
4
Turn, O Lord, and deliver me;
save me because of your unfailing love.
5
No one remembers you when he is dead.
Who praises you from the grave?
6
I am worn out from groaning;
all night long I flood my bed with weeping
and drench my couch with tears.
