PSALMS OF PRAYERS AND PRAISES
New Living Translation

 

Psalms 6

O LORD, do not rebuke me in your anger or discipline me in your rage.
Have compassion on me, LORD, for I am weak.  Heal me, LORD, for my body is in agony.
I am sick at heart. How long, O LORD, until you restore me?
Return, O LORD, and rescue me.  Save me because of your unfailing love.
For in death, who remembers you? Who can praise you from the grave?
I am worn out from sobbing. Every night tears drench my bed; my pillow is wet from weeping.
My vision is blurred by grief; my eyes are worn out because of all my enemies.
Go away, all you who do evil, for the LORD has heard my crying.
The LORD has heard my plea; the LORD will answer my prayer.
May all my enemies be disgraced and terrified.  May they suddenly turn back in shame.
