Psalm 6:5 in context
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?

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