A Prayer of Faith in Time of Distress

To the Chief Musician. With stringed instruments. On an eight-stringed harp. A Psalm of David.

1 O Lord, ado not rebuke me in Your anger,
Nor chasten me in Your hot displeasure. 
2 Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am weak;
O Lord, aheal me, for my bones are troubled. 
3 My soul also is greatly atroubled;
But You, O Lord—how long? 
4 Return, O Lord, deliver me!
Oh, save me for Your mercies’ sake!
5 aFor in death there is no remembrance of You;
In the grave who will give You thanks? 
6 I am weary with my groaning;
1All night I make my bed swim;
I drench my couch with my tears.
