1 For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments, upon the eight-stringed lyre. A Psalm by David.
2 Have mercy on me, LORD, for I am faint.
3 My soul is also in great anguish.
4 Return, LORD. Deliver my soul,
5 For in death there is no memory of you.
6 I am weary with my groaning.
7 My eye wastes away because of grief.
8 Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity,
9 The LORD has heard my supplication.
10 May all my enemies be ashamed and dismayed.
