6:1  To the Chief Musician. With stringed instruments. On an eight-stringed harp. A Psalm of David. O LORD, do not rebuke me in Your anger,
Nor chasten me in Your hot displeasure.

6:2  Have mercy on me, O LORD, for I am weak;
O LORD, heal me, for my bones are troubled.

6:3  My soul also is greatly troubled;
But You, O LORD—how long?

6:4  Return, O LORD, deliver me!
Oh, save me for Your mercies’ sake!

6:5  For in death there is no remembrance of You;
In the grave who will give You thanks?

6:6  I am weary with my groaning;
All night I make my bed swim;
I drench my couch with my tears.

6:7  My eye wastes away because of grief;
It grows old because of all my enemies.

6:8  Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity;
For the LORD has heard the voice of my weeping.

6:9  The LORD has heard my supplication;
The LORD will receive my prayer.

6:10  Let all my enemies be ashamed and greatly troubled;
Let them turn back and be ashamed suddenly.
