Day I : Evening Prayer

Psalm 6 - Domine, ne in furore
    
1   O Lord, rebuke me not in your indignation, +
    neither chasten me in your displeasure.

2   Have mercy upon me, O Lord, for I am weak; +
    O Lord, heal me, for my bones are racked.

3   My soul also is greatly troubled; +
    but, Lord, how long will you punish me?

4   Turn, O Lord, and deliver my soul; +
    O save me for your mercy’s sake.

5   For in death no one remembers you, +
    and who will give you thanks in the grave?

6   I am weary with my groaning; +
    every night I flood my bed and drench my couch with my tears.

7   My eyes have become dim because of trouble, +
    and worn away because of all my enemies.

8   Away from me, all you who work wickedness, +
    for the Lord has heard the voice of my weeping.

9   The Lord has heard my petition; +
    the Lord will receive my prayer.

10  All my enemies shall be confounded and greatly vexed; +
    they shall be turned back and put to shame suddenly.
