Psalms 6

1 Εἰς τὸ τέλος, ἐν ὕμνοις ὑπὲρ τῆς ὀγδόης, ψαλμὸς τῷ Δαυίδ.

2 Κύριε, μὴ τῷ θυμῷ σου ἐλέγξῃς με, μηδὲ τῇ ὀργῇ σου παιδεύσῃς με.

3 Ἐλέησόν με Κύριε, ὅτι ἀσθενής εἰμι· ἴασαί με Κύριε, ὅτι ἐταράχθη τὰ ὀστᾶ μου.

4 Καὶ ἡ ψυχή μου ἐταράχθη σφόδρα· καὶ σὺ Κύριε ἕως πότε;

5 Ἐπίστρεψον Κύριε, ῥῦσαι τὴν ψυχήν μου· σῶσόν με ἕνεκεν τοῦ ἐλέους σου,

6 ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν ἐν τῷ θανάτῳ ὁ μνημονεύων σου, ἐν δὲ τῷ ᾅδῃ τίς ἐξομολογήσεταί σοι;

7 Ἐκοπίασα ἐν στεναγμῷ μου, λούσω καθʼ ἑκάστην νύκτα τὴν κλίνην μου, ἐν δάκρυσί μου τὴν στρωμνήν μου βρέξω.

8 Ἐταράχθη ἀπὸ θυμοῦ ὁ ὀφθαλμός μου, ἐπαλαιώθην ἐν πᾶσι τοῖς ἐχθροῖς μου.

9 Ἀπόστητε ἀπʼ ἐμοῦ πάντες οἱ ἐργαζόμενοι τὴν ἀνομίαν, ὅτι εἰσήκουσε Κύριος τῆς φωνῆς τοῦ κλαυθμοῦ μου.

10 Εἰσήκουσε Κύριος τῆς δεήσεώς μου, Κύριος τὴν προσευχήν μου προσεδέξατο.

11 Αἰσχυνθείησαν καὶ ταραχθείησαν σφόδρα πάντες οἱ ἐχθροί μου, ἐπιστραφείησαν καὶ αἰσχυνθείησαν σφόδρα διὰ τάχους.

1 For the end, a Psalm of David among the Hymns for the eighth.

2 O Lord, rebuke me not in thy wrath, neither chasten me in thine anger.

3 Pity me, O Lord; for I am weak: heal me, O Lord; for my bones are vexed.

4 My soul also is grievously vexed: but thou, O Lord, how long?

5 Return, O Lord, deliver my soul: save me for thy mercy's sake.

6 For in death no man remembers thee: and who will give thee thanks in Hades?

7 I am wearied with my groaning; I shall wash my bed every night; I shall water my couch with my tears.

I have laboured.

8 Mine eye is troubled because of my wrath; I am worn out because of all my enemies.

9 Depart from me, all ye that work iniquity; for the Lord has heard the voice of my weeping.

10 The Lord has hearkened to my petition; the Lord has accepted my prayer.

11 Let all mine enemies be put to shame and sore troubled: let them be turned back and grievously put to shame speedily.
