Psalm 6:1-10 Gently, Gently Lay Your Rod

1 O Lord, rebuke me not in Your anger, nor discipline me in Your wrath. 2 Be gracious to me, O Lord, for I am languishing; heal me, O Lord, for my bones are troubled. 3 My soul also is greatly troubled. But You, O Lord—how long? 4 Turn, O Lord, deliver my life; save me for the sake of Your steadfast love. 5 For in death there is no remembrance of You; in Sheol who will give You praise? 6 I am weary with my moaning; every night I flood my bed with tears; I drench my couch with my weeping. 7 My eye wastes away because of grief; it grows weak because of all my foes. 8 Depart from me, all you workers of evil, for the Lord has heard the sound of my weeping. 9 The Lord has heard my plea; the Lord accepts my prayer. 10 All my enemies shall be ashamed and greatly troubled; they shall turn back and be put to shame in a moment.
