1(For the one directing. With stringed instruments. Al HaSheminit. Mizmor Dovid)

2Hashem, rebuke me not in Thine anger,
neither chasten me in Thy hot displeasure.

3Have mercy upon me, Hashem;
for I am weak:
Hashem, heal me;
for my atzmot are shaking.

4My nefesh is also much shaken;
but Thou, Hashem, ad mosai (how much longer)?

5Turn, Hashem, deliver my nefesh;
hoshieini (save me) for the sake of Thy chesed.

6For in mavet there is no remembrance of Thee;
in Sheol who shall give Thee thanks?

7I am weary with my groaning;
all the lailah flood I my mittah with weeping;
I water my couch with my tears.

8Mine eye is consumed because of ka'as (grief);
it groweth old because of all mine enemies.

9Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity;
for Hashem hath heard the voice of my weeping.

10Hashem hath heard my techinnah (supplication);
Hashem will receive my tefillah (prayer).

11Let all mine oyevim be ashamed and much troubled;
let them turn back and suddenly be ashamed.
