For the choir director: A psalm of David, to be accompanied by an eight-stringed instrument. Hebrew with stringed instruments; according to the sheminith.
1O LORD, don’t rebuke me in your angeror discipline me in your rage.
2 Have compassion on me, LORD, for I am weak.Heal me, LORD, for my bones are in agony.
3 I am sick at heart.How long, O LORD, until you restore me?
4Return, O LORD, and rescue me.Save me because of your unfailing love.
5 For the dead do not remember you.Who can praise you from the grave? Hebrew from Sheol?
6I am worn out from sobbing.All night I flood my bed with weeping,drenching it with my tears.
7 My vision is blurred by grief;my eyes are worn out because of all my enemies.
8Go away, all you who do evil,for the LORD has heard my weeping.
9 The LORD has heard my plea;the LORD will answer my prayer.
10 May all my enemies be disgraced and terrified.May they suddenly turn back in shame.
