1How long, O LORD? Will You forget me forever? How long will You hide Your face from me?
1(13-1) For the Leader. A Psalm of David. (13-2) How long, O LORD, wilt Thou forget me for ever? How long wilt Thou hide Thy face from me?
2How long must I wrestle in my soul, with sorrow in my heart each day? How long will my enemy dominate me?
2(13-3) How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart by day? How long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?
3Consider me and respond, O LORD my God. Give light to my eyes, lest I sleep in death,
3(13-4) Behold Thou, and answer me, O LORD my God; lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;
4lest my enemy say, “I have overcome him,” and my foes rejoice when I fall.
4(13-5) Lest mine enemy say: 'I have prevailed against him'; lest mine adversaries rejoice when I am moved.
5But I have trusted in Your loving devotion; my heart will rejoice in Your salvation.
5(13-6) But as for me, in Thy mercy do I trust; my heart shall rejoice in Thy salvation.
6I will sing to the LORD, for He has been good to me.
6(13-6) I will sing unto the LORD, because He hath dealt bountifully with me.
