Daily Psalms reading. Psalm 6

1 O Lord, rebuke me not in your anger,

nor discipline me in your wrath.

2   Be gracious to me, O Lord, for I am languishing;

heal me, O Lord, for my bones are troubled.

3   My soul also is greatly troubled.

But you, O Lord—how long?

4   Turn, O Lord, deliver my life;

save me for the sake of your steadfast love.

5   For in death there is no remembrance of you;

in Sheol who will give you praise?

6   I am dweary with my emoaning;

every night I flood my bed with tears;

I drench my couch with my weeping.

7   My eye wastes away because of grief;

it grows weak because of all my foes.

8   Depart from me, all you hworkers of evil,

for the Lord has heard the sound of my weeping.

9   The Lord has heard my jplea;

the Lord accepts my prayer.

10  All my enemies shall be ashamed and greatly troubled;

they shall turn back and be put to shame in a moment.
