Do not rebuke me in your anger

(Psalm 6:1-10)
1
A Psalme of Dauid for remembrance. O Lord, rebuke mee not in thine anger, neither chastise me in thy wrath.
2
For thine arrowes haue light vpon me, and thine hand lyeth vpon me.
3
There is nothing sound in my flesh, because of thine anger: neither is there rest in my bones because of my sinne.
4
For mine iniquities are gone ouer mine head, and as a weightie burden they are too heauie for me.
5
My woundes are putrified, and corrupt because of my foolishnes.
6
I am bowed, and crooked very sore: I goe mourning all the day.
7
For my reines are full of burning, and there is nothing sound in my flesh.
8
I am weakened and sore broken: I roare for the very griefe of mine heart.
9
Lord, I powre my whole desire before thee, and my sighing is not hid from thee.
10
Mine heart panteth: my strength faileth me, and the light of mine eyes, euen they are not mine owne.
11
My louers and my friends stand aside from my plague, and my kinsmen stand a farre off.
12
They also, that seeke after my life, laye snares, and they that go about to do me euil, talke wicked things and imagine deceite continually.
13
But I as a deafe man heard not, and am as a dumme man, which openeth not his mouth.
14
Thus am I as a man, that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no reproofes.
15
For on thee, O Lord, do I waite: thou wilt heare me, my Lord, my God.
16
For I said, Heare me, least they reioyce ouer me: for when my foote slippeth, they extol themselues against me.
17
Surely I am ready to halte, and my sorow is euer before me.
18
When I declare my paine, and am sory for my sinne,
19
Then mine enemies are aliue and are mightie, and they that hate me wrongfully are many.
20
They also, that rewarde euill for good, are mine aduersaries, because I follow goodnesse.
21
Forsake me not, O Lord: be not thou farre from me, my God.
22
Haste thee to helpe mee, O my Lord, my saluation.
