1To the chief Musician on Neginoth upon Sheminith, A Psalm of David. O LORD, rebuke me not in thy anger, neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.

2Have mercy upon me, O LORD; for I am weak: O LORD, heal me; for my bones are agitated.

3My soul is also greatly disquieted: but thou, O LORD, how long?

4Return, O LORD, deliver my soul: Oh save me for thy mercies sake.

5For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave who will give thee thanks?

6I am weary with my groaning; all the night I make my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears.

7My eye is consumed because of grief; it groweth old because of all my enemies.

8Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for the LORD hath heard the voice of my weeping.

9The LORD hath heard my supplication; the LORD will receive my prayer.

10Let all my enemies be ashamed and greatly disquieted: let them return and be suddenly ashamed.
