Psalms 6

¹In parts according to verses. A Psalm of David. For the octave

²O Lord, do not rebuke me in your fury, nor chastise me in your anger

³Have mercy on me, Lord, for I am weak. Heal me, Lord, for my bones have become disturbed

⁴and my soul has been very troubled. But as for you, Lord, when

⁵Turn to me, Lord, and rescue my soul. Save me because of your mercy

⁶For there is no one in death who would be mindful of you. And who will confess to you in Hell

⁷I have labored in my groaning. Every night, with my tears, I will wash my bed and drench my blanket

⁸My eye has been troubled by rage. I have grown old among all my enemies

⁹Scatter before me, all you who work iniquity, for the Lord has heard the voice of my weeping

¹⁰The Lord has heard my supplication. The Lord has accepted my prayer

¹¹Let all my enemies be ashamed and together be greatly troubled. May they be converted and become ashamed very quickly
