Psalms

Chapter 13

1 How long, Yahweh ? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?

2 How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart every day? How long shall my enemy triumph over me ?

3 Behold, and answer me , Yahweh , my God. Give light to my eyes, lest I sleep in death ;

4 lest my enemy say, " I have prevailed against him ;" lest my adversaries rejoice when I fall.

5 But I trust in your loving kindness. My heart rejoices in your salvation.

6 I will sing to Yahweh , because he has been good to me .
