Psalms 6

KING JAMES BIBLE	NEW JERUSALEM
1 O LORD, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.	1 [For the choirmaster For strings For the octachord Psalm Of David] Yahweh, let your rebuke to me notbe in anger, your punishment not in the heat of wrath.
2 Have mercy upon me, O LORD; for I am weak: O LORD, heal me; for my bones are vexed.	2 Have pity on me, Yahweh, for I am fading away. Heal me, Yahweh, my bones are shaken,
3 My soul is also sore vexed: but thou, O LORD, how long?	3 my spirit is shaken to its very depths. But you, Yahweh . . . how long?
4 Return, O LORD, deliver my soul: oh save me for thy mercies' sake.	4 Yahweh, relent and save my life rescue me because of your faithful love,
5 For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave who shall give thee thanks?	5 for in death there is no remembrance of you; who could sing your praises in Sheol?
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 groaning, every night I drench my pil ow and soak my bed with tears.
7 Mine eye is consumed because of grief; it waxeth old because of all mine enemies.	7 My eyes waste away with vexation. Arrogance from al my foes!
8 Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for the LORD hath heard the voice of my weeping.	8 Away from me, al evil-doers! For Yahweh has heard the sound of my weeping,
9 The LORD hath heard my supplication; the LORD will receive my prayer.	9 Yahweh has heard my pleading. Yahweh wil accept my prayer.
10 Let all mine enemies be ashamed and sore vexed: let them return and be ashamed suddenly.	10 Let al my enemies be put to confusion, shaken to their depths, let them retreat in sudden confusion.
