American Standard Version

Psalm 6:1-8 American Standard Version (ASV)

1. O Jehovah, rebuke me not in thine anger, Neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.

2. Have mercy upon me, O Jehovah; for I am withered away: O Jehovah, heal me; for my bones are troubled.

3. My soul also is sore troubled: And thou, O Jehovah, how long?

4. Return, O Jehovah, deliver my soul: Save me for thy lovingkindness’ sake.

5. For in death there is no remembrance of thee: In Sheol who shall give thee thanks?

6. I am weary with my groaning; Every night make I my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears.

7. Mine eye wasteth away because of grief; It waxeth old because of all mine adversaries.

8. Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; For Jehovah hath heard the voice of my weeping.
