Do Not Rebuke Me in Your Anger

Psalm 38:1–22

1To the Overseer with stringed instruments, on the octave. --A Psalm of David. O Jehovah, in Thine anger reprove me not, Nor in Thy fury chastise me.+ 2Favour me, O Jehovah, for I am weak, Heal me, O Jehovah, For troubled have been my bones,+ 3And my soul hath been troubled greatly, And Thou, O Jehovah, till when?+ 4Turn back, O Jehovah, draw out my soul, Save me for Thy kindness' sake.+ 5For there is not in death Thy memorial, In Sheol, who doth give thanks to Thee?+ 6I have been weary with my sighing, I meditate through all the night on my bed, With my tear my couch I waste.+ 7Old from provocation is mine eye, It is old because of all mine adversaries,+ 8Turn from me all ye workers of iniquity, For Jehovah heard the voice of my weeping,+ 9Jehovah hath heard my supplication, Jehovah my prayer receiveth.+ 10Ashamed and troubled greatly are all mine enemies, They turn back--ashamed in a moment!+
