1Yahweh, do not rebuke me in your anger
or discipline me in your wrath.

2Have mercy on me, Yahweh, for I am frail;
heal me, Yahweh, for my bones are shaking.

3My soul also is very troubled.
But you, Yahweh—how long will this continue?

4Return, Yahweh! rescue me.
Save me because of your covenant faithfulness!

5For in death there is no remembrance of you.
In Sheol who will give you thanks?

6I am weary with my groaning.
All night I drench my bed with tears;
I wash my couch away with my tears.

7My eyes grow dim from grief;
they grow weak because of all my adversaries.

8Get away from me, all you who practice iniquity;
for Yahweh has heard the sound of my weeping.

9Yahweh has heard my appeal for mercy;
Yahweh has accepted my prayer.

10All my enemies will be ashamed and greatly troubled.
They will turn back and be suddenly humiliated.
