Do not rebuke me in your anger

(Psalm 38:1-22)
1
To him that excelleth on Neginoth upon the eith tune. A Psalme of Dauid. O lord, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither chastise me in thy wrath.
2
Haue mercie vpon me, O Lord, for I am weake: O Lord heale me, for my bones are vexed.
3
My soule is also sore troubled: but Lord how long wilt thou delay?
4
Returne, O Lord: deliuer my soule: saue me for thy mercies sake.
5
For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the graue who shall prayse thee?
6
I fainted in my mourning: I cause my bed euery night to swimme, and water my couch with my teares.
7
Mine eye is dimmed for despight, and sunke in because of all mine enemies.
8
Away from mee all ye workers of iniquitie: for the Lord hath heard the voyce of my weeping.
9
The Lord hath heard my petition: the Lord will receiue my prayer.
10
All mine enemies shall be confounded and sore vexed: they shall be turned backe, and put to shame suddenly.
