| 1LORD, in your anger, do not rebuke me, in your wrath, do not discipline me. | 1O LORD, rebuke me not in your anger, nor discipline me in your wrath. |
| 2Be gracious to me, LORD, because I am fading away. Heal me, because my body is distressed. | 2Be gracious to me, O LORD, for I am languishing; heal me, O LORD, for my bones are troubled. |
| 3And my soul is deeply distressed. But you, LORD, how long do I wait? | 3My soul also is greatly troubled. But you, O LORD—how long? |
| 4Return, LORD, save my life! Deliver me, because of your gracious love. | 4Turn, O LORD, deliver my life; save me for the sake of your steadfast love. |
| 5In death, there is no memory of you. Who will give you thanks where the dead are? | 5For in death there is no remembrance of you; in Sheol who will give you praise? |
| 6I am weary from my groaning. Every night my couch is drenched with tears, my bed is soaked through. | 6I am weary with my moaning; every night I flood my bed with tears; I drench my couch with my weeping. |
| 7My eyesight has faded because of grief, it has dimmed because of all my enemies. | 7My eye wastes away because of grief; it grows weak because of all my foes. |
| 8Get away from me, all of you who practice evil, for the LORD has heard the sound of my weeping. | 8Depart from me, all you workers of evil, for the LORD has heard the sound of my weeping. |
| 9The LORD has heard my plea; the LORD receives my prayer. | 9The LORD has heard my plea; the LORD accepts my prayer. |
| 10As for all my enemies, they will be put to shame; they will be greatly frightened and suddenly turn away ashamed. | 10All my enemies shall be ashamed and greatly troubled; they shall turn back and be put to shame in a moment. |
