| 6:1 | O LORD, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure. |
| 6:2 | Have mercy upon me, O LORD; for I am weak: O LORD, heal me; for my bones are vexed. |
| 6:3 | My soul is also sore vexed: but thou, O LORD, how long? |
| 6:4 | Return, O LORD, deliver my soul: oh save me for thy mercies' sake. |
| 6:5 | For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave who shall give thee thanks? |
| 6:6 | I am weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears. |
| 6:7 | Mine eye is consumed because of grief; it waxeth old because of all mine enemies. |
| 6:8 | Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for the LORD hath heard the voice of my weeping. |
| 6:9 | The LORD hath heard my supplication; the LORD will receive my prayer. |
| 6:10 | Let all mine enemies be ashamed and sore vexed: let them return and be ashamed suddenly. |

By the mid-18th century the wide variation in the various modernized printed texts of the Authorized Version, combined with the notorious accumulation of misprints, had reached the proportion of a scandal, and the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge both sought to produce an updated standard text. First of the two was the Cambridge edition of 1760, the culmination of twenty-years work by Francis Sawyer Parris, who died in May of that year. This 1760 edition was reprinted without change in 1762 and in John Baskerville's fine folio edition of 1763. This was effectively superseded by the 1769 Oxford edition, edited by Benjamin Blayney.
