¹ For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments, set to the Sheminith. A Psalm of David. O Yahweh, don't rebuke me in your anger, Neither chasten me in your hot displeasure.² Have mercy on me, O Yahweh; for I am withered away: O Yahweh, heal me; for my bones are troubled.³ My soul also is intensely troubled: And you, O Yahweh, how long?⁴ Return, O Yahweh, deliver my soul: Save me for your loving-kindness' sake.⁵ For in death there is no remembrance of you: In Sheol who shall give you thanks?⁶ I am weary with my groaning; Every night I make my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears.⁷ My eye wastes away because of grief; It waxes old because of all my adversaries.

⁸ Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity; For Yahweh has heard the voice of my weeping.⁹ Yahweh has heard my supplication; Yahweh will receive my prayer.¹⁰ All my enemies shall be put to shame and intensely troubled: They shall turn back, they shall be put to shame suddenly.
