- Kapitel 6 -

Do not rebuke me in your anger

(Psalm 38:1-22)

For the chief musician; on stringed instruments, set to the Sheminith style. A psalm of David. Yahweh, do not rebuke me in your anger or discipline me in your wrath.

Have mercy on me, Yahweh, for I am frail; heal me, Yahweh, for my bones are shaking.

My soul also is very troubled. But you, Yahweh-how long will this continue?

Return, Yahweh! rescue me. Save me because of your covenant faithfulness!

For in death there is no remembrance of you. In Sheol who will give you thanks?

I am weary with my groaning. All night I drench my bed with tears; I wash my couch away with my tears.

My eyes grow dim from grief; they grow weak because of all my adversaries.

Get away from me, all you who practice iniquity; for Yahweh has heard the sound of my weeping.

Yahweh has heard my appeal for mercy; Yahweh has accepted my prayer.

All my enemies will be ashamed and greatly troubled. They will turn back and be suddenly humiliated.

Do not rebuke me in your anger

(Psalm 38:1-22)

LORD, don’t rebuke me in your anger, neither discipline me in your wrath.

Have mercy on me, LORD, for I am faint. LORD, heal me, for my bones are troubled.

My soul is also in great anguish. But you, LORD—how long?

Return, LORD. Deliver my soul, and save me for your loving kindness’ sake.

For in death there is no memory of you. In Sheol,(a) who shall give you thanks?

I am weary with my groaning. Every night I flood my bed. I drench my couch with my tears.

My eye wastes away because of grief. It grows old because of all my adversaries.

Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity, for the LORD has heard the voice of my weeping.

The LORD has heard my supplication. The LORD accepts my prayer.

May all my enemies be ashamed and dismayed. They shall turn back, they shall be disgraced suddenly.
