To the chief Musician on Neginoth upon Sheminith, A Psalm of David.

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 weak: O LORD, heal 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. Deliver my soul – It is the soul, the being, which is destroyed. E361

5 For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in Sheol who shall give thee thanks? Is no remembrance – There is no consciousness in hell. E361; R4781:2, R552:6, R802:2*, R4363:4*; SM525:1; HG511:1

"The dead know not anything." (Eccl. 9:5) R754:4*

Death is the "land of forgetfulness." (Psa. 88:11) CR209:2; HG335:1

Therefore they can neither assent to, nor oppose, their awakening. R1509:5

Man's probation or trial must occur, not in death, but before the state of death has begun or after it has ended--in the resurrection. R909:3*, R915:6

Even from the human standpoint it would be a short time for each individual who would only have the few remaining years of life before the Kingdom. R3180:6

Thus, when our Lord was dead he could not preach and the dead of mankind could not hear. R4176:6

In the grave – Sheol, oblivion, death, not torment. E361; R828:6; HG216:2

Give thee thanks – The text manifestly refers to the pious. E361

Therefore the departed saints have not been praising the Lord after their death all during the past ages. R1881:5


6 I am weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears.
7 Mine eye is consumed because of grief; it waxeth old because of all mine enemies.
8 Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; 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.
