Psalms 6

New Living Translation NLT

1 O LORD, don’t rebuke me in your anger or discipline me in your rage.

2 Have compassion on me, LORD, for I am weak. Heal me, LORD, for my bones are in agony.

3 I am sick at heart. How long, O LORD, until you restore me?

4 Return, O LORD, and rescue me. Save me because of your unfailing love.

5 For the dead do not remember you. Who can praise you from the grave?

6 I am worn out from sobbing. All night I flood my bed with weeping, drenching it with my tears.

7 My vision is blurred by grief; my eyes are worn out because of all my enemies.

8 Go away, all you who do evil, for the LORD has heard my weeping.

9 The LORD has heard my plea; the LORD will answer my prayer.

10 May all my enemies be disgraced and terrified. May they suddenly turn back in shame.

The Message Bible MSG

1 Please, God, no more yelling, no more trips to the woodshed.

2 Treat me nice for a change; I'm so starved for affection. Can't you see I'm black and blue,

3 and soul? God, how long will it take for you to let up?

4 Break in, God, and break up this fight; if you love me at all, get me out of here.

5 I'm no good to you dead, am I? I can't sing in your choir if I'm buried in some tomb!

6 I'm tired of all this - so tired. My bed has been floating forty days and nights On the flood of my tears. My mattress is soaked, soggy with tears.

7 The sockets of my eyes are black holes; nearly blind, I squint and grope.

8 Get out of here, you Devil's crew: at last God has heard my sobs.

9 My requests have all been granted, my prayers are answered.

10 Cowards, my enemies disappear. Disgraced, they turn tail and run.
