King James Version KJV
New Living Translation NLT
1 O LORD, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
1
O LORD, don’t rebuke me in your anger or discipline me in your rage.
2 Have mercy upon me, O LORD; for I am weak: O LORD, heal me; for my bones are vexed.
2
Have compassion on me, LORD, for I am weak. Heal me, LORD, for my bones are in agony.
3 My soul is also sore vexed: but thou, O LORD, how long?
3
I am sick at heart. How long, O LORD, until you restore me?
4 Return, O LORD, deliver my soul: oh save me for thy mercies' sake.
4
Return, O LORD, and rescue me. Save me because of your unfailing love.
5 For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave who shall give thee thanks?
5
For the dead do not remember you. Who can praise you from the grave?
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 from sobbing. All night I flood my bed with weeping, drenching it with my tears.
7 Mine eye is consumed because of grief; it waxeth old because of all mine enemies.
7
My vision is blurred by grief; my eyes are worn out because of all my enemies.
8 Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for the LORD hath heard the voice of my weeping.
8
Go away, all you who do evil, for the LORD has heard my weeping.
9 The LORD hath heard my supplication; the LORD will receive my prayer.
9
The LORD has heard my plea; the LORD will answer my prayer.
10 Let all mine enemies be ashamed and sore vexed: let them return and be ashamed suddenly.
10
May all my enemies be disgraced and terrified. May they suddenly turn back in shame.
