| 1To the chief Musician on Neginoth upon Sheminith, A Psalm of David. O LORD, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure. | 1LORD, do not rebuke me in your anger; do not discipline me in your wrath. |
| 2Have mercy upon me, O LORD; for I am weak: O LORD, heal me; for my bones are vexed. | 2Be gracious to me, LORD, for I am weak; heal me, LORD, for my bones are shaking; |
| 3My soul is also sore vexed: but thou, O LORD, how long? | 3my whole being is shaken with terror. And you, LORD--how long? |
| 4Return, O LORD, deliver my soul: oh save me for thy mercies' sake. | 4Turn, LORD! Rescue me; save me because of your faithful love. |
| 5For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave who shall give thee thanks? | 5For there is no remembrance of you in death; who can thank you in Sheol? |
| 6I am weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears. | 6I am weary from my groaning; with my tears I dampen my bed and drench my couch every night. |
| 7Mine eye is consumed because of grief; it waxeth old because of all mine enemies. | 7My eyes are swollen from grief; they grow old because of all my enemies. |
| 8Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for the LORD hath heard the voice of my weeping. | 8Depart from me, all evildoers, for the LORD has heard the sound of my weeping. |
| 9The LORD hath heard my supplication; the LORD will receive my prayer. | 9The LORD has heard my plea for help; the LORD accepts my prayer. |
| 10Let all mine enemies be ashamed and sore vexed: let them return and be ashamed suddenly. | 10All my enemies will be ashamed and shake with terror; they will turn back and suddenly be disgraced. |
