![](images/arrow_open.gif)
Strongs On/Off
Context
6:5 For no one remembers you in the realm of death , In Sheol who gives you thanks ?
6:6 I am exhausted as I groan ; all night long I drench my bed in tears; my tears saturate the cushion beneath me.
6:7 My eyes grow dim from suffering ; they grow weak because of all my enemies .
6:8 Turn back from me, all you who behave wickedly , for the Lord has heard the sound of my weeping !
6:9 The Lord has heard my appeal for mercy ; the Lord has accepted my prayer .
6:10 May all my enemies be humiliated and absolutely terrified ! May they turn back and be suddenly humiliated !
