International Standard Version | Christian Standard Bible |
1LORD, in your anger, do not rebuke me, in your wrath, do not discipline me. | 1LORD, do not rebuke me in your anger; do not discipline me in your wrath. |
2Be gracious to me, LORD, because I am fading away. Heal me, because my body is distressed. | 2Be gracious to me, LORD, for I am weak; heal me, LORD, for my bones are shaking; |
3And my soul is deeply distressed. But you, LORD, how long do I wait? | 3my whole being is shaken with terror. And you, LORD--how long? |
4Return, LORD, save my life! Deliver me, because of your gracious love. | 4Turn, LORD! Rescue me; save me because of your faithful love. |
5In death, there is no memory of you. Who will give you thanks where the dead are? | 5For there is no remembrance of you in death; who can thank you in Sheol? |
6I am weary from my groaning. Every night my couch is drenched with tears, my bed is soaked through. | 6I am weary from my groaning; with my tears I dampen my bed and drench my couch every night. |
7My eyesight has faded because of grief, it has dimmed because of all my enemies. | 7My eyes are swollen from grief; they grow old because of all my enemies. |
8Get away from me, all of you who practice evil, for the LORD has heard the sound of my weeping. | 8Depart from me, all evildoers, for the LORD has heard the sound of my weeping. |
9The LORD has heard my plea; the LORD receives my prayer. | 9The LORD has heard my plea for help; the LORD accepts my prayer. |
10As for all my enemies, they will be put to shame; they will be greatly frightened and suddenly turn away ashamed. | 10All my enemies will be ashamed and shake with terror; they will turn back and suddenly be disgraced. |
