| 1O LORD, don’t rebuke me in your anger or discipline me in your rage. | 1For the director of music. With stringed instruments. According to sheminith. A psalm of David. LORD, do not rebuke me in your anger or discipline me in your wrath. |
| 2Have compassion on me, LORD, for I am weak. Heal me, LORD, for my bones are in agony. | 2Have mercy on me, LORD, for I am faint; heal me, LORD, for my bones are in agony. |
| 3I am sick at heart. How long, O LORD, until you restore me? | 3My soul is in deep anguish. How long, LORD, how long? |
| 4Return, O LORD, and rescue me. Save me because of your unfailing love. | 4Turn, LORD, and deliver me; save me because of your unfailing love. |
| 5For the dead do not remember you. Who can praise you from the grave? | 5Among the dead no one proclaims your name. Who praises you from the grave? |
| 6I am worn out from sobbing. All night I flood my bed with weeping, drenching it with my tears. | 6I am worn out from my groaning. All night long I flood my bed with weeping and drench my couch with tears. |
| 7My vision is blurred by grief; my eyes are worn out because of all my enemies. | 7My eyes grow weak with sorrow; they fail because of all my foes. |
| 8Go away, all you who do evil, for the LORD has heard my weeping. | 8Away from me, all you who do evil, for the LORD has heard my weeping. |
| 9The LORD has heard my plea; the LORD will answer my prayer. | 9The LORD has heard my cry for mercy; the LORD accepts my prayer. |
| 10May all my enemies be disgraced and terrified. May they suddenly turn back in shame. | 10All my enemies will be overwhelmed with shame and anguish; they will turn back and suddenly be put to shame. |
