6:1 For the choir director. With stringed instruments.According to sheminith. A psalm by David. Lord, do not rebuke me in your anger. Do not discipline me in your wrath.
6:2 Be merciful to me, Lord, for I am fading away. Heal me, Lord, for my bones are trembling,
6:3 and my soul is terrified. But you, O Lord—how long?
6:4 Turn, O Lord, and deliver my soul. Save me because of your mercy.
6:5 For in death no one remembers you. In the grave who praises you?
6:6 I am worn out from my groaning. I flood my bed all night long. With my tears I drench my couch.
6:7 My eyes are blurred by sorrow. They are worn out because of all my foes.
6:8 Turn away from me, all you evildoers, because the Lord has heard the sound of my weeping.
6:9 The Lord has heard my cry for mercy. The Lord accepts my prayer.
6:10 They will be put to shame. All my enemies will be terrified. They will turn back. They will be put to shame in an instant.
