Psalms 6
Easy-to-Read Version, 2006
- 1LORD, don’t punish me. Don’t correct me when you are so angry.
- 2LORD, be kind to me. I am sick and weak. Heal me, LORD! My bones are shaking.
- 3I am trembling all over. LORD, how long until you heal me?[1]
- 4LORD, come back and make me strong again. Save me because you are so loyal and kind.
- 5If I am dead, I cannot sing about you. Those in the grave don’t praise you.
- 6Lord, I am so weak. I cried to you all night. My pillow is soaked; my bed is dripping wet from my tears.
- 7My enemies have caused me such sorrow that my eyes are worn out from crying.
- 8Go away, you wicked people, because the LORD has heard my cries.
- 9The LORD has heard my request for mercy. The LORD has accepted my prayer.
- 10All my enemies will be filled with fear and shame. They will be sorry when disgrace suddenly comes upon them.
