6:1   LORD, don't be angry and rebuke me! Don't punish me in your anger!

6:2   I am worn out, O LORD; have pity on me! Give me strength; I am completely exhausted

6:3   and my whole being is deeply troubled. How long, O LORD, will you wait to help me?

6:4   Come and save me, LORD; in your mercy rescue me from death.

6:5   In the world of the dead you are not remembered; no one can praise you there.

6:6   I am worn out with grief; every night my bed is damp from my weeping; my pillow is soaked with tears.

6:7   I can hardly see; my eyes are so swollen from the weeping caused by my enemies.

6:8   Keep away from me, you evil people! The LORD hears my weeping;

6:9   he listens to my cry for help and will answer my prayer.

6:10   My enemies will know the bitter shame of defeat; in sudden confusion they will be driven away.
