| 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. | 1For the choir director; with stringed instruments, upon an eight-string lyre. A Psalm of David. O LORD, do not rebuke me in Your anger, Nor chasten 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, O LORD, for I am pining away; Heal me, O LORD, for my bones are dismayed. |
| 3My soul is also sore vexed: but thou, O LORD, how long? | 3And my soul is greatly dismayed; But You, O LORD-- how long? |
| 4Return, O LORD, deliver my soul: oh save me for thy mercies' sake. | 4Return, O LORD, rescue my soul; Save me because of Your lovingkindness. |
| 5For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave who shall give thee thanks? | 5For there is no mention of You in death; In Sheol who will give You thanks? |
| 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 with my sighing; Every night I make my bed swim, I dissolve my couch with my tears. |
| 7Mine eye is consumed because of grief; it waxeth old because of all mine enemies. | 7My eye has wasted away with grief; It has become old because of all my adversaries. |
| 8Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for the LORD hath heard the voice of my weeping. | 8Depart from me, all you who do iniquity, For the LORD has heard the voice of my weeping. |
| 9The LORD hath heard my supplication; the LORD will receive my prayer. | 9The LORD has heard my supplication, The LORD receives 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 greatly dismayed; They shall turn back, they will suddenly be ashamed. |
