Module 17: God the Helper - Adoring Worship
Psalms Book 1 Ps. 1-41 - Jehovah, The Becoming One. The Helper (Adoring Worship)
Psalms Chapter 6 For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments, upon the eight-stringed lyre. A Psalm by David.
4. Jehovah's deliverance in time of chastisement - Ps. 6
1 LORD, don't rebuke me in your anger, neither discipline me in your wrath.
2 Have mercy on me, LORD, for I am faint. LORD, heal me, for my bones are troubled.
3 My soul is also in great anguish. But you, LORD-how long?
4 Return, LORD. Deliver my soul, and save me for your loving kindness' sake.
5 For in death there is no memory of you. In Sheol, who shall give you thanks?
6 I am weary with my groaning. Every night I flood my bed. I drench my couch with my tears.
7 My eye wastes away because of grief. It grows old because of all my adversaries.
8 Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity, for the LORD has heard the voice of my weeping.
9 The LORD has heard my supplication. The LORD accepts my prayer.
10 May all my enemies be ashamed and dismayed. They shall turn back, they shall be disgraced suddenly.
