Psalm 6 (NIV)

...LISTEN...

    For the director of music.  With stringed instruments. 
According to sheminith. A psalm of David.
1 O LORD, do not rebuke me in your anger
   or discipline me in your wrath.
2 Be merciful to me, LORD, for I am faint;
   O LORD, heal me, for my bones are in agony.
3 My soul is in anguish.
   How long, O LORD, how long?
 4 Turn, O LORD, and deliver me;
   save me because of your unfailing love.
5 No one remembers you when he is dead.
   Who praises you from the grave?
 6 I am worn out from groaning;
   all night long I flood my bed with weeping
   and drench my couch with tears.
7 My eyes grow weak with sorrow;
   they fail because of all my foes.
 8 Away from me, all you who do evil,
   for the LORD has heard my weeping.
9 The LORD has heard my cry for mercy;
   the LORD accepts my prayer.
10 All my enemies will be ashamed and dismayed;
   they will turn back in sudden disgrace.
