Bay Psalm Book: Psalm 6

Psalme 6

To the chief Musician on Neginoth upon- Sheminith, a psalme of David

1 LORD in thy wrath rebuke me not, nor in thy hot wrath chasten me. 2 Pitty me Lord, for I am weak, Lord heale me, for my bones vext be.

3 Also my soule is troubled sore: how long Lord wilt thou me forsake? 4 Returne o Lord, my soule release: o save me for thy mercy sake.

5 In death no mem’ry is of thee and who shall prayse thee in the grave? 6 I faint with groanes, all night my bed swims, I with tears my couch washt have.

7 mine eye with grief is dimme and old: because of all mine enimies. 8 But now depart away fom me, all yee that work iniquities:

for Iehovah ev’n now hath heard the voyce of these my weeping teares. 9 Iehovah heare my humble suit, Iehovah doth receive my prayers.

10 Let all mine enimies be asham’d and greatly troubled let them be: yea let them be returned back, and be ashamed suddenlie.
