Psalms - Chapter 6 | Good News Translation

  • 1. LORD, don't be angry and rebuke me! Don't punish me in your anger!
  • 2. I am worn out, O LORD; have pity on me! Give me strength; I am completely exhausted
  • 3. and my whole being is deeply troubled. How long, O LORD, will you wait to help me?
  • 4. Come and save me, LORD; in your mercy rescue me from death.
  • 5. In the world of the dead you are not remembered; no one can praise you there.
  • 6. I am worn out with grief; every night my bed is damp from my weeping; my pillow is soaked with tears.
  • 7. I can hardly see; my eyes are so swollen from the weeping caused by my enemies.
  • 8. Keep away from me, you evil people! The LORD hears my weeping;
  • 9. he listens to my cry for help and will answer my prayer.
  • 10. My enemies will know the bitter shame of defeat; in sudden confusion they will be driven away.
