Psalms 6

Thomson(i) 1 For the conclusion, among Hymns for the eighth day. A Psalm by David. O Lord, rebuke me not in thy wrath; nor chasten me in thine anger. 2 Pity me, Lord, for I am weak. Heal me, Lord, for my bones are troubled. 3 My soul is troubled exceedingly: but Lord, for how long? 4 Return, Lord; deliver my soul: save me for thy mercy's sake. 5 For in death none can make mention of thee. In the mansion of the dead, who can give thee thanks? 6 I am weary with my groaning. Am I every night to bedew my bed and water my couch with my tears? 7 Mine eye is troubled with indignation: I am grown old among all mine enemies. 8 Away from me, all ye workers of iniquity. For the Lord hath heard the voice of my weeping; 9 the Lord hath heard my supplication: the Lord hath received my petition. 10 Let all mine enemies be shamed and greatly troubled. Let them be turned back and instantly put to shame.
