1(6-1) For the Leader; with string-music; on the Sheminith. A Psalm of David. (6-2) O LORD, rebuke me not in Thine anger, neither chasten me in Thy wrath.
2(6-3) Be gracious unto me, O LORD, for I languish away; heal me, O LORD, for my bones are affrighted.
3(6-4) My soul also is sore affrighted; and Thou, O LORD, how long?
4(6-5) Return, O LORD, deliver my soul; save me for Thy mercy's sake.
