Psalm 6

1 O LORD, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.

1 Lord, don't be angry and rebuke me! Don't punish me in your anger!

2 Have mercy upon me, O LORD; for I am weak: O LORD, heal me; for my bones are vexed.

2 I am worn out, O Lord; have pity on me! Give me strength; I am completely exhausted

3 My soul is also sore vexed: but thou, O LORD, how long?

3 and my whole being is deeply troubled. How long, O Lord, will you wait to help me?

4 Return, O LORD, deliver my soul: oh save me for thy mercies' sake.

4 Come and save me, Lord; in your mercy rescue me from death.

5 For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave who shall give thee thanks?

5 In the world of the dead you are not remembered; no one can praise you there.

6 I am weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears.

6 I am worn out with grief; every night my bed is damp from my weeping; my pillow is soaked with tears.

7 Mine eye is consumed because of grief; it waxeth old because of all mine enemies.

7 I can hardly see; my eyes are so swollen from the weeping caused by my enemies.

8 Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for the LORD hath heard the voice of my weeping.

8 Keep away from me, you evil people! The Lord hears my weeping;

9 The LORD hath heard my supplication; the LORD will receive my prayer.

9 he listens to my cry for help and will answer my prayer.

10 Let all mine enemies be ashamed and sore vexed: let them return and be ashamed suddenly.

10 My enemies will know the bitter shame of defeat; in sudden confusion they will be driven away.
