1.For the director of music. With stringed instruments. According to sheminith. A psalm of David. O LORD, do not rebuke me in your anger of discipline me in your wrath.
2.Be merciful to me, LORD, for I am faint: O LORD, heal me, for my bones are in agony.
3.My soul is in anguish. How long, O LORD, how long?
4.Tum, O LORD, and deliver me: save me because of your unfailing love.
5.No one remembers you when he is dead. Who praises you from the grave?
6.I am worn out from groaning: all night long I flood my bed with weeping and drench my couch with tears.
7.My eyes grow weak with sorrow: they fail because of all my foes.
8.Away from me, all you who do evil, for the LORD has heard my weeping.
9.The LORD has heard my cry for mercy: the LORD accepts my prayer.
10.All my enemies will be ashamed and dismayed: they will turn back in sudden disgrace. |
