1. For the Leader; with string-music; on the Sheminith. A Psalm of David.
2. O LORD, rebuke me not in Thine anger, Neither chasten me in Thy wrath.
3. Be gracious unto me, O LORD, for I languish away; Heal me, O LORD, for my bones are affrighted.
4. My soul also is sore affrighted; And Thou, O LORD, how long?
5. Return, O LORD, deliver my soul; Save me for Thy mercy's sake.
6. For in death there is no remembrance of Thee; In the nether-world who will give Thee thanks?
7. I am weary with my groaning; Every night make I my bed to swim; I melt away my couch with my tears.
8. Mine eye is dimmed because of vexation; It waxeth old because of all mine adversaries.
9. Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; For the LORD hath heard the voice of my weeping.
10. The LORD hath heard my supplication; The LORD receiveth my prayer.
11. All mine enemies shall be ashamed and sore affrighted; They shall turn back, they shall be ashamed suddenly.
2. O LORD, rebuke me not in Thine anger, Neither chasten me in Thy wrath.
3. Be gracious unto me, O LORD, for I languish away; Heal me, O LORD, for my bones are affrighted.
4. My soul also is sore affrighted; And Thou, O LORD, how long?
5. Return, O LORD, deliver my soul; Save me for Thy mercy's sake.

11. All mine enemies shall be ashamed and sore affrighted; They shall turn back, they shall be ashamed suddenly.
