1 Lord, don't correct me when you are angry. Don't punish me when you are burning with anger.
2 Lord, have mercy on me. I'm so weak. Lord, heal me. My body is full of pain.
3 My soul is very troubled. Lord, how long will it be until you save me?
4 Lord, turn to me and help me. Save me. Your love never fails.
5 People can't remember you when they are dead. How can they praise you when they are in the grave?
6 My groaning has worn me out. All night long my tears flood my bed. My bed is wet because of my crying.
7 I'm so sad I can't see very well. My eyesight gets worse because of all of my enemies.
8 Get away from me, all of you who do evil. The Lord has heard my sobbing.
9 The Lord has heard my cry for his favor. The Lord accepts my prayer.
