To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments; according to The Sheminith. A Psalm of David.
1O LORD, rebuke me not in your anger, nor discipline me in your wrath.[1] (Ps 38,1; Ps 94,12; Ps 118,18; Przyp 3,11; Przyp 3,12; Jer 30,11; Jer 46,28)2Be gracious to me, O LORD, for I am languishing; heal me, O LORD, for my bones are troubled. (Ps 30,2; Ps 31,10; Ps 41,4; Ps 103,3)3My soul also is greatly troubled. But you, O LORD— how long? (Ps 90,13; Jan 12,27)4Turn, O LORD, deliver my life; save me for the sake of your steadfast love.5For in death there is no remembrance of you; in Sheol who will give you praise? (Ps 30,9; Ps 88,10; Ps 115,17; Iz 38,18)6I am weary with my moaning; every night I flood my bed with tears; I drench my couch with my weeping. (Ps 38,9; Ps 69,3)7My eye wastes away because of grief; it grows weak because of all my foes. (Job 17,7; Ps 31,9; Ps 38,10; Ps 88,9; Lm 2,11; Lm 5,17)8Depart from me, all you workers of evil, for the LORD has heard the sound of my weeping. (Ps 3,4; Ps 94,4; Ps 119,115; Ps 139,19; Mt 7,23; Mt 25,41; Łk 13,27)9The LORD has heard my plea; the LORD accepts my prayer. (1 Krl 8,38; Ps 55,1)10All my enemies shall be ashamed and greatly troubled; they shall turn back and be put to shame in a moment. (Ps 40,14; Ps 56,9)
