- Kapitel 6 -

Do not rebuke me in your anger

(Psalm 38:1-22)
1
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.
2
Have mercy on me, Yahweh, for I am frail; heal me, Yahweh, for my bones are shaking.
3
My soul also is very troubled. But you, Yahweh-how long will this continue?
4
Return, Yahweh! rescue me. Save me because of your covenant faithfulness!
5
For in death there is no remembrance of you. In Sheol who will give you thanks?
6
I am weary with my groaning. All night I drench my bed with tears; I wash my couch away with my tears.
7
My eyes grow dim from grief; they grow weak because of all my adversaries.
8
Get away from me, all you who practice iniquity; for Yahweh has heard the sound of my weeping.
9
Yahweh has heard my appeal for mercy; Yahweh has accepted my prayer.
10
All my enemies will be ashamed and greatly troubled. They will turn back and be suddenly humiliated.
