6:1 This is a song that David wrote. Tell the music leader, ‘Use harps when you sing this song.’ Lord, when you are angry, please do not punish me.
6:2 I do not feel strong, Lord, so please be kind to me. Lord, please make me well again. Even my bones are shaking.
6:3 I am very frightened. Lord, when will you do something to help me?
6:4 Lord, turn back to me. Give me back my life. Make me safe because of your faithful love.
6:5 If I die, I will no longer remember you. Nobody can praise you in their grave!
6:6 I am crying so much that I have no more strength. My bed becomes wet because I weep all night. My tears run into my pillow.
6:7 I am so sad that my eyes do not see well any more. They are becoming weak because of all my enemies.
6:8 Go away from me, you people who do wicked things! Now the Lord has heard me when I weep.
6:9 I asked the Lord to be kind and to help me. Now he has answered me!
6:10 All my enemies will become ashamed! They will go away from me in fear! Shame will suddenly come to them!
