Psalms 6

(Psalm 38:1–22)

For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments, according to Sheminith.Sheminith is probably a musical term; here and in 1 Chronicles 15:21 and Psalm 12:1. A Psalm of David.

1O LORD, do not rebuke me in Your angeror discipline me in Your wrath.2Be merciful to me, O LORD, for I am frail;heal me, O LORD, for my bones are in agony.3My soul is deeply distressed.How long, O LORD, how long?
4Turn, O LORD, and deliver my soul;save me because of Your loving devotion.5For there is no mention of You in death;who can praise You from Sheol?
6I am weary from groaning;all night I flood my bed with weepingand drench my couch with tears.7My eyes fail from grief;they grow dim because of all my foes.
8Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity,for the LORD has heard my weeping.9The LORD has heard my cry for mercy;the LORD accepts my prayer.10All my enemies will be ashamed and dismayed;they will turn back in sudden disgrace.
