Daily Inspiration Spiritual: Psalm 6

I love this scripture.  What college student hasn't 'watered their couch with their tears' probably with an pint of Ben and Jerry's that David forgot to mention.  The best part is verse 9 where after you empathize with the misery, you realize it's okay because the Lord heard me and know's what I am going through and it will be okay.  If we didn't have trials would we remember the Lord, would we be grateful...good can come from everything if you look for it.  There's a lot of meaning in this psalm take what you need from it.

  1 O Lord, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.

  2 Have mercy upon me, O Lord; for I am ^aweak: O Lord, ^bheal me; for my bones are vexed.

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

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

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

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

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

  8 Depart from me, all ye workers of ^ainiquity; for the Lord hath heard the voice of my weeping.

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

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