PSALM 6
First Version
Meter: 8,8,8,8
To the chief Musician on Neginoth upon Sheminith,
A Psalm of David.
1Lord, in thy wrath rebuke me not;
Nor in thy hot rage chasten me.
2Lord, pity me, for I am weak:
Heal me, for my bones vexed be.
3My soul is also vexed sore;
But, Lord, how long stay wilt thou make?
4Return, O Lord, my soul set free;
O save me, for thy mercies' sake.
5Because those that deceased are
Of thee shall no remembrance have;
And who is he that will to thee
Give praises lying in the grave?
6I with my groaning weary am,
I also all the night my bed
Have caused for to swim; and I
With tears my couch have watered.
7Mine eye, consum'd with grief, grows old,
Because of all mine enemies.
8Hence from me, wicked workers all;
For God hath heard my weeping cries.
9God hath my supplication heard,
My pray'r received graciously
10Sham'd and sore vex'd be all my foes,
Sham'd and back turned suddenly.

Tehillim 6
6
(For the one directing. With stringed instruments. Al HaSheminit. Mizmor Dovid)
1 Hashem, rebuke me not in Thine anger, neither chasten me in Thy hot displeasure.
2 Have mercy upon me, Hashem; for I am weak: Hashem, heal me; for my atzmot are shaking.
3 My nefesh is also much shaken; but Thou, Hashem, ad mosai (how much longer)?
4 Turn, Hashem, deliver my nefesh; hoshieini (save me) for the sake of Thy chesed.
5 For in mavet there is no remembrance of Thee; in Sheol who shall give Thee thanks?
6 I am weary with my groaning; all the lailah flood I my mittah with weeping; I water my couch with my tears.
7 Mine eye is consumed because of ka'as (grief); it groweth old because of all mine enemies.
8 Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for Hashem hath heard the voice of my weeping.
9 Hashem hath heard my techinnah (supplication); Hashem will receive my tefillah (prayer).
10 Let all mine oyevim be ashamed and much troubled; let them turn back and suddenly be ashamed.
