Psalm 6 For the choir director: A psalm of David, to be accompanied by an eight-stringed instrument. [a] 1 O L ORD , don’t rebuke me in your anger or discipline me in your rage. 2 Have compassion on me, L ORD , for I am weak. Heal me, L ORD , for my bones are in agony. 3 I am sick at heart.
How long, O L ORD , until you restore me? 4 Return, O L ORD , and rescue me. Save me because of your unfailing love. 5 For the dead do not remember you. Who can praise you from the grave? [b] 6 I am worn out from sobbing. All night I flood my bed with weeping, drenching it with my tears.
7 My vision is blurred by grief; my eyes are worn out because of all my enemies. 8 Go away, all you who do evil, for the L ORD has heard my weeping. 9 The L ORD has heard my plea; the L ORD will answer my prayer. 10 May all my enemies be disgraced and terrified. May they suddenly turn back in shame.
Psalm 23 A psalm of David. 1 The L ORD is my shepherd, I lack nothing. 2 He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, 3 he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake. 4 Even though I walk through the darkest valley
I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. 5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. 6 Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the L ORD forever.
