Psalms 6

NEW JERUSALEM	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
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.	1 In parts according to verses. A Psalm of David. For the octave.
2 Have pity on me, Yahweh, for I am fading away. Heal me, Yahweh, my bones are shaken,	2 O Lord, do not rebuke me in your fury, nor chastise me in your anger.
3 my spirit is shaken to its very depths. But you, Yahweh . . . how long?	3 Have mercy on me, Lord, for I am weak. Heal me, Lord, for my bones have become disturbed,
4 Yahweh, relent and save my life rescue me because of your faithful love,	4 and my soul has been very troubled. But as for you, Lord, when?
5 for in death there is no remembrance of you; who could sing your praises in Sheol?	5 Turn to me, Lord, and rescue my soul. Save me because of your mercy.
6 I am worn out with groaning, every night I drench my pil ow and soak my bed with tears.	6 For there is no one in death who would be mindful of you. And who will confess to you in Hell?
7 My eyes waste away with vexation. Arrogance from al my foes!	7 I have labored in my groaning. Every night, with my tears, I will wash my bed and drench my blanket.
8 Away from me, al evil-doers! For Yahweh has heard the sound of my weeping,	8 My eye has been troubled by rage. I have grown old among all my enemies.
9 Yahweh has heard my pleading. Yahweh wil accept my prayer.	9 Scatter before me, all you who work iniquity, for the Lord has heard the voice of my weeping.
10 Let al my enemies be put to confusion, shaken to their depths, let them retreat in sudden confusion.	10 The Lord has heard my supplication. The Lord has accepted my prayer.
	11 Let all my enemies be ashamed and together be greatly troubled. May they be converted and become ashamed very quickly.
