For the End, a Psalm of David among the
Hymns for the eighth. 6:1 O Yehovah, rebuke me not in thy wrath, neither
chasten me in thine anger.
6:2 Pity me, O Yehovah; for I am weak: heal me, O Yehovah; for my bones are vexed.
6:3 My soul also is grievously vexed: but thou, O Yehovah, how long?
6:4 Return, O Yehovah, deliver my soul: save me for thy mercy's sake.
6:5 For in death no man remembers thee: and who will give thee thanks in
Sheol?
6:6 I am wearied with my groaning; I shall wash my bed every night; I shall
water my couch with tears.
6:7 Mine eye is troubled because of my wrath; I am worn out because of all
my enemies.
6:8 Depart from me, all ye that work iniquity; for Yehovah has heard the
voice of my weeping.
6:9 Yehovah has hearkened t my petition; Yehovah has accepted my prayer.
6:10 Let all mine enemies be put to shame and sore troubled: let them be
turned back and grievously put to shame speedily. |
