Psalms 6

A Prayer of Faith in Time of Distress

To the Chief Musician. With stringed instruments. #Ps. 12:titleOn an eight-stringed harp. A Psalm of David.

1O Lord, #Ps. 38:1; 118:18; (Jer. 10:24)do not rebuke me in Your anger,

Nor chasten me in Your hot displeasure.

2Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am weak;

O Lord, #Ps. 41:4; 147:3; (Hos. 6:1)heal me, for my bones are troubled.

3My soul also is greatly #Ps. 88:3; John 12:27troubled;

But You, O Lord—how long?

4Return, O Lord, deliver me!

Oh, save me for Your mercies’ sake!

5#Ps. 30:9; 88:10–12; 115:17; (Eccl. 9:10); Is. 38:18For in death there is no remembrance of You;

In the grave who will give You thanks?

6I am weary with my groaning;

All night I make my bed swim;

I drench my couch with my tears.

7#Job 17:7; Ps. 31:9My eye wastes away because of grief;

It grows old because of all my enemies.

8#(Matt. 25:41)Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity;

For the Lord has #Ps. 3:4; 28:6heard the voice of my weeping.

9The Lord has heard my supplication;

The Lord will receive my prayer.

10Let all my enemies be ashamed and greatly troubled;

Let them turn back and be ashamed suddenly.
