6:1 (6-1) For the Leader; with string-music; on the Sheminith. A Psalm of David. (6-2) O LORD, rebuke me not in Thine anger, neither chasten me in Thy wrath.

6:2 (6-3) Be gracious unto me, O LORD, for I languish away; heal me, O LORD, for my bones are affrighted.

6:3 (6-4) My soul also is sore affrighted; and Thou, O LORD, how long?

6:4 (6-5) Return, O LORD, deliver my soul; save me for Thy mercy's sake.

6:5 For none who is dead remembereth Thee in this world; from the grave who will give Thee thanks, until the resurrection?

6:6 (6-7) I am weary with my groaning; every night make I my bed to swim; I melt away my couch with my tears.

6:7 (6-8) Mine eye is dimmed because of vexation; it waxeth old because of all mine adversaries.

6:8 (6-9) Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for the LORD hath heard the voice of my weeping.

6:9 (6-10) The LORD hath heard my supplication; the LORD receiveth my prayer.

6:10 (6-11) All mine enemies shall be ashamed and sore affrighted; they shall turn back, they shall be ashamed suddenly.
