Psalm 6^[a]

For the director of music. With stringed instruments. According to sheminith.^[b] A psalm of David.

¹Lord, do not rebuke me in your anger^(A)
    or discipline me in your wrath.
²Have mercy on me,^(B) Lord, for I am faint;^(C)
    heal me,^(D) Lord, for my bones are in agony.^(E)
³My soul is in deep anguish.^(F)
    How long,^(G) Lord, how long?

⁴Turn,^(H) Lord, and deliver me;
save me because of your unfailing love.^(I)
⁵Among the dead no one proclaims your name.
Who praises you from the grave?^(J)

⁶I am worn out^(K) from my groaning.^(L)

All night long I flood my bed with weeping^(M)
and drench my couch with tears.^(N)
⁷My eyes grow weak^(O) with sorrow;
they fail because of all my foes.

⁸Away from me,^(P) all you who do evil,^(Q)
    for the Lord has heard my weeping.
⁹The Lord has heard my cry for mercy;^(R)
    the Lord accepts my prayer.
¹⁰All my enemies will be overwhelmed with shame and anguish;^(S)
    they will turn back and suddenly be put to shame.^(T)
