Psalms 6 ~ Listen and Read Along

Dramatized KJV
 JV McGee
This is known as the first of the seven great penitential psalms. He knows that it is chastisement, and under the pressure of it he utters a cry for deliverance from the pain and the sorrow and chastisement.

A remarkable revelation of the tender compassion of God as this psalm recognizes God's rebuke and chastening. The supreme desire is to escape from suffering and sorrow. Notwithstanding the shallowness of the sense of sin, the fact of the recognition of the hand of The LORD seems to be enough, and in answering pity and power the deliverance and the comfort sought are granted.
