Psalms 13
How Long, O LORD?
1For the leader. A psalm of David.
2How long, O LORD, will you forget me—forever? How long will you hide your face from me?
3How long shall I set counsels in my soula, sorrow in my heart by day? How long shall my enemy be exalted over me?
4Look, answer me, O LORD my God; lighten my eyes, lest I sleep the death;
5Lest my enemy say, "I have prevailed against him"; lest my adversaries rejoice when I am moved.
6But I, in your lovingkindness I have trusted; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation (Yeshuah). I will sing to the LORD, for he has dealt bountifully with me.
