Psalm 6 - New International Version, 2011 bible

Psalm 6

¹For the director of music. With stringed instruments. According to sheminith. [7] A psalm of David. [1] LORD, do not rebuke me in your anger or discipline me in your wrath.

²Have mercy on me, LORD, for I am faint; heal me, LORD, for my bones are in agony.

³My soul is in deep anguish. How long, LORD, how long?

⁴Turn, LORD, and deliver me; save me because of your unfailing love.

⁵Among the dead no one proclaims your name. Who praises you from the grave?

⁶I am worn out from my groaning. All night long I flood my bed with weeping and drench my couch with tears.

⁷My eyes grow weak with sorrow; they fail because of all my foes.

⁸Away from me, all you who do evil, for the LORD has heard my weeping.

⁹The LORD has heard my cry for mercy; the LORD accepts my prayer.

¹⁰All my enemies will be overwhelmed with shame and anguish; they will turn back and suddenly be put to shame.
