1Unto the end, in verses, a psalm for David, for the octave.
1LORD, don’t rebuke me in your anger, neither discipline me in your wrath.
2O Lord, rebuke me not in thy indignation, nor chastise me in thy wrath.
2Have mercy on me, LORD, for I am faint. LORD, heal me, for my bones are troubled.
3Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am weak: heal me, O Lord, for my bones are troubled.
3My soul is also in great anguish. But you, LORD—how long?
4And my soul is troubled exceedingly: but thou, O Lord, how long?
4Return, LORD. Deliver my soul, and save me for your loving kindness’ sake.
5Turn to me, O Lord, and deliver my soul: O save me for thy mercy’s sake.
5For in death there is no memory of you. In Sheol, who shall give you thanks?
6For there is no one in death, that is mindful of thee: and who shall confess to thee in hell?
6I am weary with my groaning. Every night I flood my bed. I drench my couch with my tears.
7I have laboured in my groanings, every night I will wash my bed: I will water my couch with my tears.
7My eye wastes away because of grief. It grows old because of all my adversaries.
8My eye is troubled through indignation: I have grown old amongst all my enemies.
8Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity, for the LORD has heard the voice of my weeping.
9Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity: for the Lord hath heard the voice of my weeping.
9The LORD has heard my supplication. The LORD accepts my prayer.
10The Lord hath heard my supplication: the Lord hath received my prayer.
10May all my enemies be ashamed and dismayed. They shall turn back, they shall be disgraced suddenly.
11Let all my enemies be ashamed, and be very much troubled: let them be turned back, and be ashamed very speedily.
