1 O LORD, rebuke me not in thine anger, nor chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
2 Have mercy upon me, O LORD, for I am withered away. O LORD, heal me, for my bones are troubled.
3 My soul also is greatly troubled. And thou, O LORD, how long?
4 Return, O LORD, deliver my soul. Save me for thy loving kindness' sake.
5 For in death there is no remembrance of thee. In Sheol who shall give thee thanks?
