| 1 For the choir director; with stringed instruments, upon an eight-string lyre. A Psalm of David. O LORD, do not rebuke me in Your anger, Nor chasten me in Your wrath. | 1 O LORD, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure. | 1 [For the choir director; with stringed instruments, on the [sheminith]; a psalm by David.] O LORD, do not punish me in your anger or discipline me in your rage. | 1 Yahweh, don't rebuke me in your anger, neither discipline me in your wrath. | 1 {To the chief Musician. On stringed instruments, upon Sheminith. A Psalm of David.} Jehovah, rebuke me not in thine anger, and chasten me not in thy hot displeasure. | 2 Be gracious to me, O LORD, for I am pining away; Heal me, O LORD, for my bones are dismayed. | 2 Have mercy upon me, O LORD; for I am weak: O LORD, heal me; for my bones are vexed. | 2 Have pity on me, O LORD, because I am weak. Heal me, O LORD, because my bones shake with terror. | 2 Have mercy on me, Yahweh, for I am faint. Yahweh, heal me, for my bones are troubled. | 2 Be gracious unto me, Jehovah, for I am withered; Jehovah, heal me, for my bones tremble. | 3 And my soul is greatly dismayed; But You, O LORD-- how long? | 3 My soul is also sore vexed: but thou, O LORD, how long? | 3 My soul has been deeply shaken with terror. But you, O LORD, how long...? | 3 My soul is also in great anguish. But you, Yahweh--how long? | 3 And my soul trembleth exceedingly: and thou, Jehovah, till how long? | 4 Return, O LORD, rescue my soul; Save me because of Your lovingkindness. | 4 Return, O LORD, deliver my soul: oh save me for thy mercies' sake. | 4 Come back, O LORD. Rescue me. Save me because of your mercy! | 4 Return, Yahweh. Deliver my soul, and save me for your loving kindness' sake. | 4 Return, Jehovah, free my soul; save me for thy loving-kindness' sake. | 5 For there is no mention of You in death; In Sheol who will give You thanks? | 5 For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave who shall give thee thanks? | 5 In death, no one remembers you. In the grave, who praises you? | 5 For in death there is no memory of you. In Sheol, who shall give you thanks? | 5 For in death there is no remembrance of thee; in Sheol who shall give thanks unto thee? | NASB | KJV | GWT | WEB | DBY |
| 6 I am weary with my sighing; Every night I make my bed swim, I dissolve my couch with my tears. | 6 I am weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears. | 6 I am worn out from my groaning. My eyes flood my bed every night. I soak my couch with tears. | 6 I am weary with my groaning. Every night I flood my bed. I drench my couch with my tears. | 6 I am wearied with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I dissolve my couch with my tears. | 7 My eye has wasted away with grief; It has become old because of all my adversaries. | 7 Mine eye is consumed because of grief; it waxeth old because of all mine enemies. | 7 My eyes blur from grief. They fail because of my enemies. | 7 My eye wastes away because of grief. It grows old because of all my adversaries. | 7 Mine eye wasteth away through grief; it hath grown old because of all mine oppressors. | 8 Depart from me, all you who do iniquity, For the LORD has heard the voice of my weeping. | 8 Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for the LORD hath heard the voice of my weeping. | 8 Get away from me, all you troublemakers, because the LORD has heard the sound of my crying. | 8 Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity, for Yahweh has heard the voice of my weeping. | 8 Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for Jehovah hath heard the voice of my weeping. | 9 The LORD has heard my supplication, The LORD receives my prayer. | 9 The LORD hath heard my supplication; the LORD will receive my prayer. | 9 The LORD has heard my plea for mercy. The LORD accepts my prayer. | 9 Yahweh has heard my supplication. Yahweh accepts my prayer. | 9 Jehovah hath heard my supplication; Jehovah receiveth my prayer. | 10 All my enemies will be ashamed and greatly dismayed; They shall turn back, they will suddenly be ashamed. | 10 Let all mine enemies be ashamed and sore vexed: let them return and be ashamed suddenly. | 10 All my enemies will be put to shame and deeply shaken with terror. In a moment they will retreat and be put to shame. | 10 May all my enemies be ashamed and dismayed. They shall turn back, they shall be disgraced suddenly. A meditation by David, which he sang to Yahweh, concerning the words of Cush, the Benjamite. | 10 All mine enemies shall be ashamed and tremble exceedingly; they will turn, they will be ashamed suddenly. |
