Psalm 6 (WEBP)

[1] Yahweh, don’t rebuke me in your anger, neither discipline me in your wrath.
[2] Have mercy on me, Yahweh, for I am faint. Yahweh, heal me, for my bones are troubled.
[3] My soul is also in great anguish. But you, Yahweh—how long?
[4] Return, Yahweh. Deliver my soul, and save me for your loving kindness’ sake.
[5] For in death there is no memory of you. In Sheol, who shall give you thanks?
[6] I am weary with my groaning. Every night I flood my bed. I drench my couch with my tears.
[7] My eye wastes away because of grief. It grows old because of all my adversaries.
[8] Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity, for Yahweh has heard the voice of my weeping.
[9] Yahweh has heard my supplication. Yahweh accepts my prayer.
[10] May all my enemies be ashamed and dismayed. They shall turn back, they shall be disgraced suddenly.

Psalm 6:5 Sheol is the place of the dead.

[1] εις το τελος εν υμνοις υπερ της ογδοης ψαλμος τω δαυιδ [6:2] κυριε μη τω θυμω σου ελεγξης με μηδε τη οργη σου παιδευσης με
[2] [6:3] ελεησον με κυριε οτι ασθενης ειμι ιασαι με κυριε οτι εταραχθη τα οστα μου
[3] [6:4] και η ψυχη μου εταραχθη σφοδρα και συ κυριε εως ποτε
[4] [6:5] επιστρεψον κυριε ρυσαι την ψυχην μου σωσον με ενεκεν του ελεους σου
[5] [6:6] οτι ουκ εστιν εν τω θανατω ο μνημονευων σου εν δε τω αδη τις εξομολογησεται σοι
[6] [6:7] εκοπιασα εν τω στεναγμω μου λουσω καθ εκαστην νυκτα την κλινην μου εν δακρυσιν μου την στρωμνην μου βρεξω
[7] [6:8] εταραχθη απο θυμου ο οφθαλμος μου επαλαιωθην εν πασιν τοις εχθροις μου
[8] [6:9] αποστητε απ εμου παντες οι εργαζομενοι την ανομιαν οτι εισηκουσεν κυριος της φωνης του κλαυθμου μου
[9] [6:10] εισηκουσεν κυριος της δεησεως μου κυριος την προσευχην μου προσεδεξατο
[10] [6:11] αισχυνθειησαν και ταραχθειησαν σφοδρα παντες οι εχθροι μου αποστραφειησαν και καταισχυνθειησαν σφοδρα δια ταχους
