1
How long wilt thou forget me, O LORD? for ever? how long wilt thou hide thy face from me?
2
How long shall I takecounsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heartdaily? how long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?
3Consider and hear me, O LORD my God:lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;4
Lest mine enemysay , I have prevailed against him; and those that trouble me rejoice when I am moved .
5
But I have trusted in thy mercy; my heart shall rejoice in thy salvation.6
I will sing unto the LORD, because he hath dealt bountifully with me.
