New King James Version | International Standard Version |
1To the Chief Musician. With stringed instruments. On an eight-stringed harp. A Psalm of David. O LORD, do not rebuke me in Your anger, Nor chasten me in Your hot displeasure. | 1LORD, in your anger, do not rebuke me, in your wrath, do not discipline me. |
2Have mercy on me, O LORD, for I am weak; O LORD, heal me, for my bones are troubled. | 2Be gracious to me, LORD, because I am fading away. Heal me, because my body is distressed. |
3My soul also is greatly troubled; But You, O LORD—how long? | 3And my soul is deeply distressed. But you, LORD, how long do I wait? |
4Return, O LORD, deliver me! Oh, save me for Your mercies’ sake! | 4Return, LORD, save my life! Deliver me, because of your gracious love. |
5For in death there is no remembrance of You; In the grave who will give You thanks? | 5In death, there is no memory of you. Who will give you thanks where the dead are? |
6I am weary with my groaning; All night I make my bed swim; I drench my couch with my tears. | 6I am weary from my groaning. Every night my couch is drenched with tears, my bed is soaked through. |
7My eye wastes away because of grief; It grows old because of all my enemies. | 7My eyesight has faded because of grief, it has dimmed because of all my enemies. |
8Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity; For the LORD has heard the voice of my weeping. | 8Get away from me, all of you who practice evil, for the LORD has heard the sound of my weeping. |
9The LORD has heard my supplication; The LORD will receive my prayer. | 9The LORD has heard my plea; the LORD receives my prayer. |
10Let all my enemies be ashamed and greatly troubled; Let them turn back and be ashamed suddenly. | 10As for all my enemies, they will be put to shame; they will be greatly frightened and suddenly turn away ashamed. |
