A prayer in time of distress

Psa 6:1–10

6:1 A prayer in time of distress

6 A song by David for the singing director to be accompanied by the eight-stringed instrument.

1 Yahweh, don’t rebuke me in your anger,

≈ or discipline me in your rage.[ref]

2 Be gracious to me, Yahweh, because I’m frail.

≈ Heal me, Yahweh, because my bones are aching.

3 I’m emotionally distressed.

How much longer, Yahweh?

4 Turn around, Yahweh, and save my life

to demonstrate your loyal commitment.

5 Once we’re dead we can’t honour you.

Who will give thanks to you from Sheol?

6 I’m worn out from groaning.

Every night I make my bed swim with my tears.

I melt away on my couch.

7 I can barely open my eyes because of my grief.

My enemies make me weak with grief.

8 Keep away from me, all you who do evil things,[ref]

because Yahweh has heard the sound of my weeping.

9 Yahweh has heard my requests—

≈ Yahweh will answer my prayer.

10 Let my enemies be shamed and severely dismayed.

Let them retreat and feel ashamed for a while.
