Commentary on Psalms 6:2
David's physical weakness becomes the basis for his plea for mercy. The Hebrew 'amal' (weak) suggests withering or languishing, while 'bahal' (vexed) means terrified or dismayed. The mention of 'bones' represents his entire being - physical and emotional anguish. This teaches that believers can honestly bring their frailty before God as a reason for His compassion, not stoic denial. God's mercy is directed precisely toward the weak (2 Corinthians 12:9). The prayer for healing acknowledges God as the ultimate physician of body and soul.
