1. To 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.
2. Favour me, O Jehovah, for I [am] weak, Heal me, O Jehovah, For troubled have been my bones,
3. And my soul hath been troubled greatly, And Thou, O Jehovah, till when?
4. Turn back, O Jehovah, draw out my soul, Save me for Thy kindness' sake.
5. For there is not in death Thy memorial, In Sheol, who doth give thanks to Thee?
6. I have been weary with my sighing, I meditate through all the night [on] my bed, With my tear my couch I waste.
