诗篇 6
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
在悲苦中呼求 神拯救
大卫的诗，交给诗班长，用丝弦的乐器伴奏，调用“舍明尼”。
6 耶和华啊！求你不要在烈怒中责备我，
也不要在气忿中管教我。
2 耶和华啊！求你恩待我，因为我软弱；
耶和华啊！求你医治我，因为我的骨头发抖。
3 我的心也大大战栗，
耶和华啊！要等到几时呢？
4 耶和华啊！求你回转搭救我，
因你慈爱的缘故拯救我。
5 因为在死亡之地无人记念你，
在阴间有谁称谢你呢？
6 我因悲叹而疲惫，
我夜夜流泪，把床漂起，
把床榻浸透。
7 我因愁烦眼目昏花，
因众多的仇敌视力衰退。
8 你们所有作恶的人，离开我去吧，
因为耶和华听了我哀哭的声音。
9 耶和华听了我的恳求，
耶和华必接纳我的祷告。
10 我所有的仇敌都必蒙羞，大大惊惶；
眨眼之间，他们必蒙羞后退。
Psalm 6

Psalm 6
A Prayer for Mercy
For the choir director: with stringed instruments, according to Sheminith.(A) A Davidic psalm.
1 Lord, do not rebuke me in Your anger;
do not discipline me in Your wrath.(B)
2 Be gracious to me, Lord, for I am weak;[a](C)
heal me,(D) Lord, for my bones are shaking;(E)
3 my whole being is shaken with terror.(F)
And You, Lord—how long?(G)
4 Turn, Lord! Rescue me;
save me because of Your faithful love.(H)
5 For there is no remembrance of You in death;
who can thank You in Sheol?(I)
6 I am weary from my groaning;(J)
with my tears I dampen my pillow[b]
and drench my bed every night.(K)
7 My eyes are swollen from grief;(L)
they[c] grow old because of all my enemies.
Psalm 6
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
Psalm 6[a]
Prayer in Distress
1 For the leader; with stringed instruments, “upon the eighth.”[b]
A psalm of David.
I
2 Do not reprove me in your anger, Lord,
nor punish me in your wrath.(A)
3 Have pity on me, Lord, for I am weak;
heal me, Lord, for my bones are shuddering.(B)
4 My soul too is shuddering greatly—
and you, Lord, how long…?[c](C)
5 Turn back, Lord, rescue my soul;
save me because of your mercy.
6 For in death there is no remembrance of you.
Who praises you in Sheol?[d](D)
II
7 I am wearied with sighing;
all night long I drench my bed with tears;
I soak my couch with weeping.
8 My eyes are dimmed with sorrow,
worn out because of all my foes.(E)
III
9 Away from me, all who do evil!(F)
The Lord has heard the sound of my weeping.
10 The Lord has heard my plea;
the Lord will receive my prayer.
11 My foes will all be disgraced and will shudder greatly;
they will turn back in sudden disgrace.(G)
Footnotes
- Psalm 6 The first of the seven Penitential Psalms (Ps 6, 32, 38, 51, 102, 130, 143), a designation dating from the seventh century A.D. for Psalms suitable to express repentance. The psalmist does not, as in many laments, claim to be innocent but appeals to God’s mercy (Ps 6:5). Sin here, as often in the Bible, is both the sinful act and its injurious consequences; here it is physical sickness (Ps 6:3–4, 7–8) and the attacks of enemies (Ps 6:8, 9, 11). The psalmist prays that the effects of personal and social sin be taken away.
- 6:1 Upon the eighth: apparently a musical notation, now lost.
- 6:4 How long?: elliptical for “How long will it be before you answer my prayer?” cf. Ps 13:2–3.
- 6:6 A motive for God to preserve the psalmist from death: in the shadowy world of the dead no one offers you praise. Sheol is the biblical term for the underworld where the insubstantial souls of dead human beings dwelt. It was similar to the Hades of Greek and Latin literature. In the second century B.C., biblical books begin to speak positively of life with God after death (Dn 12:1–3; Wis 3).
Psalm 6
King James Version
6 O Lord, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
2 Have mercy upon me, O Lord; for I am weak: O Lord, heal me; for my bones are vexed.
3 My soul is also sore vexed: but thou, O Lord, how long?
4 Return, O Lord, deliver my soul: oh save me for thy mercies' sake.
5 For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave who shall give thee thanks?
6 I am weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears.
7 Mine eye is consumed because of grief; it waxeth old because of all mine enemies.
8 Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for the Lord hath heard the voice of my weeping.
9 The Lord hath heard my supplication; the Lord will receive my prayer.
10 Let all mine enemies be ashamed and sore vexed: let them return and be ashamed suddenly.
