Summary

Psalm 6:1–7 – Tears and plea What happens: David asks for mercy, weakened by sorrow and sickness. He weeps and longs for God’s healing. What it means: Suffering humbles the heart and drives us to grace. God hears the broken and contrite.

Psalm 6:8–10 – Heard and upheld What happens: David declares God has heard his cry; enemies turn back in shame. What it means: God listens and acts in time. Hope grows when we confess His faithfulness.

Application

  • Cry to God honestly in pain.
  • Trust His mercy more than your strength.
  • Thank Him in advance that He hears you.

Bible

1To the chief Musician on Neginoth upon Sheminith, A Psalm of David. O LORD, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.

2Have mercy upon me, O LORD; for I am weak: O LORD, heal me; for my bones are vexed.

3My soul is also sore vexed: but thou, O LORD, how long?

4Return, O LORD, deliver my soul: oh save me for thy mercies' sake.

5For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave who shall give thee thanks?

6I am weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears.

7Mine eye is consumed because of grief; it waxeth old because of all mine enemies.

8Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for the LORD hath heard the voice of my weeping.

9The LORD hath heard my supplication; the LORD will receive my prayer.

10Let all mine enemies be ashamed and sore vexed: let them return and be ashamed suddenly.
