Psalm 6

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

1 For the End, a Psalm of David amongst the Hymns for the eighth. O Lord, rebuke me not in your wrath, neither chasten me in your anger.

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

2 In the English, this verse is part of verse 1.

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

3 Pity me, O Lord; for I am weak: heal me, O Lord; for my bones are vexed. (verse 2 in Brenton's English)

4 καὶ ἡ ψυχή μου ἐταράχθη σφόδρα· καὶ σύ, Κύριε, ἕως πότε;

4 My soul also is grievously vexed: but you, O Lord, how long? (verse 3 in Brenton's English)

5 ἐπίστρεψον, Κύριε, ρῦσαι τὴν ψυχήν μου, σῶσόν με ἕνεκεν τοῦ ἐλέους σου.

5 Return, O Lord, deliver my soul: save me for your mercy's sake. (verse 4 in Brenton's English)

6 ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν ἐν τῷ θανάτῳ ὁ μνημονεύων σου· ἐν δὲ τῷ ¨„δῃ τίς ἐξομολογήσεταί σοι;

6 For in death no man remembers you: and who will give you thanks in Hades? (verse 5 in Brenton's English)

7 ἐκοπίασα ἐν τῷ στεναγμῷ μου, λούσω καθ᾿ ἑκάστην νύκτα τὴν κλίνην μου, ἐν δάκρυσί μου τὴν στρωμνήν μου βρέξω.

7 I am wearied with my groaning; I shall wash my bed every night; I shall water my couch with tears. (verse 6 in Brenton's English)

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

8 My eye is troubled because of my wrath; I am worn out because of all my enemies. (verse 7 in Brenton's English)

9 ἀπόστητε ἀπ᾿ ἐμοῦ πάντες οἱ ἐργαζόμενοι τὴν ἀνομίαν, ὅτι εἰσήκουσε Κύριος τῆς φωνῆς τοῦ κλαυθμοῦ μου·

9 Depart from me, all you⌃ that work iniquity; for the Lord has heard the voice of my weeping. (verse 8 in Brenton's English)

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

10 The Lord has listened to my petition; the Lord has accepted my prayer. (verse 9 in Brenton's English)

11 αἰσχυνθείησαν καὶ ταραχθείησαν σφόδρα πάντες οἱ ἐχθροί μου, ἀποστραφείησαν καὶ καταισχυνθείησαν σφόδρα διὰ τάχους.

11 Let all my enemies be put to shame and sore troubled: let them be turned back and grievously put to shame speedily. (verse 10 in Brenton's English)
