6:1 Lord, do not rebuke me in your anger. Do not discipline me in your raging fury. 6:2 Have mercy on me, Lord, for I am frail. Heal me, Lord, for my bones are shaking. 6:3 I am absolutely terrified, and you, Lord—how long will this continue? 6:4 Relent, Lord, rescue me! Deliver me because of your faithfulness. 6:5 For no one remembers you in the realm of death. In Sheol who gives you thanks? 6:6 I am exhausted as I groan. All night long I drench my bed in tears; my tears saturate the cushion beneath me. 6:7 My eyes grow dim from suffering; they grow weak because of all my enemies. 6:8 Turn back from me, all you who behave wickedly, for the Lord has heard the sound of my weeping. 6:9 The Lord has heard my appeal for mercy; the Lord has accepted my prayer. 6:10 They will be humiliated and absolutely terrified. All my enemies will turn back and be suddenly humiliated.
6:10 A musical composition by David, which he sang to the Lord concerning a Benjaminite named Cush.
