AMP ▾PsalmsPsalms 61O L ord , do not rebuke or punish me in Your anger, Nor discipline me in Your wrath.2Have mercy on me and be gracious to me, O L ord , for I am weak (faint, frail); Heal me, O L ord , for my bones are dismayed and anguished.3My soul [as well as my body] is greatly dismayed. But as for You, O L ord —how long [until You act on my behalf]?4¶Return, O L ord , rescue my soul; Save me because of Your [unfailing] steadfast love and mercy.5For in death there is no mention of You; In Sheol (the nether world, the place of the dead) who will praise You and give You thanks?6¶I am weary with my groaning; Every night I soak my bed with tears, I drench my couch with my weeping.7My eye grows dim with grief; It grows old because of all my enemies.8¶Depart from me, all you who do evil, For the L ord has heard the voice of my weeping. [Matt 7:23; Luke 13:27]9The L ord has heard my supplication [my plea for grace]; The L ord receives my prayer.10Let all my enemies be ashamed and greatly horrified; Let them turn back, let them suddenly be ashamed [of what they have done].Psalms 5Psalms 7
