The Scriptures 1998

Psalms 6:1-10 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

1. O יהוה, do not rebuke me in Your displeasure, Nor discipline me in Your wrath.

2. Show favour to me, O יהוה, for I am fading away; O יהוה, heal me, for my bones have been troubled.

3. And my being has been greatly troubled; And You, O יהוה – till when?

4. Return, O יהוה, rescue my life! Oh, save me for Your kindness’ sake!

5. For in death there is no remembrance of You; Who gives You thanks in the grave?

6. I have grown weary with my groaning; Every night I flood my bed; I drench my couch with my tears.

7. My eye has grown dim because of grief; It grows old because of all my adversaries.

8. Depart from me, all you workers of wickedness; For יהוה has heard the voice of my weeping.

9. יהוה has heard my pleading; יהוה receives my prayer.

10. Let all my enemies be ashamed and greatly troubled; They turn back suddenly, ashamed.
