• Prayer for Mercy in Time of Trouble.

  • 1 Lord, do not rebuke me in Your anger, Nor discipline me in Your wrath.
  • 2 Be gracious to me, Lord, for I am frail; Heal me, Lord, for my bones are horrified.
  • 3 And my soul is greatly horrified; But You, Lord—how long?
  • 4 Return, Lord, rescue my soul; Save me because of Your mercy.
  • 5 For there is no mention of You in death; In Sheol, who will praise You?
  • 6 I am weary with my sighing; Every night I make my bed swim, I flood my couch with my tears.
  • 7 My eye has wasted away with grief; It has grown old because of all my enemies.
  • 8 Leave me, all you who practice injustice, For the Lord has heard the sound of my weeping.
  • 9 The Lord has heard my pleading, The Lord receives my prayer.
  • 10 All my enemies will be put to shame and greatly horrified; They shall turn back, they will suddenly be put to shame.
