Do not rebuke me in your anger

(Psalm 6:1-10)
1
A psalm of David, to bring to remembrance. Yahweh, do not rebuke me in your anger; do not punish me in your wrath.
2
For your arrows pierce me, and your hand presses me down.
3
My whole body is sick because of your anger; there is no health in my bones because of my sin.
4
For my iniquities overwhelm me; they are a burden too heavy for me.
5
My wounds are infected and smell because of my foolish sins.
6
I am stooped over and humiliated every day; I go about mourning all day long.
7
For within me, I am filled with burning; there is no health in my flesh.
8
I am numb and utterly crushed; I groan because of the anguish of my heart.
9
Lord, you understand my heart’s deepest yearnings, and my groanings are not hidden from you.
10
My heart pounds, my strength fades, and my eyesight dims.
11
My friends and companions shun me because of my condition; my neighbors stand far off.
12
Those who seek my life lay snares for me. They who seek my harm speak destructive words and say deceitful words all day long.
13
But I, I am like a deaf man and hear nothing; I am like a mute man who says nothing.
14
I am like a man who does not hear and who has no reply.
15
Surely I wait for you, Yahweh; you will answer, Lord my God.
16
I say this so that my enemies will not gloat over me. If my foot slips, they will do terrible things to me.
17
For I am about to stumble, and I am in constant pain.
18
I confess my guilt; I am concerned about my sin.
19
But my enemies are numerous; those who hate me wrongfully are many.
20
They repay me evil for good; they hurl accusations at me although I have pursued what is good.
21
Do not abandon me, Yahweh; my God, do not stay far away from me.
22
Come quickly to help me, Lord, my salvation.

Do not rebuke me in your anger

(Psalm 6:1-10)
1
LORD, don’t rebuke me in your wrath, neither chasten me in your hot displeasure.
2
For your arrows have pierced me, your hand presses hard on me.
3
There is no soundness in my flesh because of your indignation, neither is there any health in my bones because of my sin.
4
For my iniquities have gone over my head. As a heavy burden, they are too heavy for me.
5
My wounds are loathsome and corrupt because of my foolishness.
6
I am in pain and bowed down greatly. I go mourning all day long.
7
For my waist is filled with burning. There is no soundness in my flesh.
8
I am faint and severely bruised. I have groaned by reason of the anguish of my heart.
9
Lord, all my desire is before you. My groaning is not hidden from you.
10
My heart throbs. My strength fails me. As for the light of my eyes, it has also left me.
11
My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my plague. My kinsmen stand far away.
12
They also who seek after my life lay snares. Those who seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and meditate deceits all day long.
13
But I, as a deaf man, don’t hear. I am as a mute man who doesn’t open his mouth.
14
Yes, I am as a man who doesn’t hear, in whose mouth are no reproofs.
15
For I hope in you, LORD. You will answer, Lord my God.
16
For I said, “Don’t let them gloat over me, or exalt themselves over me when my foot slips.”
17
For I am ready to fall. My pain is continually before me.
18
For I will declare my iniquity. I will be sorry for my sin.
19
But my enemies are vigorous and many. Those who hate me without reason are numerous.
20
They who render evil for good are also adversaries to me, because I follow what is good.
21
Don’t forsake me, LORD. My God, don’t be far from me.
22
Hurry to help me, Lord, my salvation.
