Jubilee Bible 2000 JUB
New International Version NIV
1 How long wilt thou forget me, O LORD? for ever? how long wilt thou hide thy face from me?
1
How long, LORD? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?
2 How long shall I take counsel in my soul, <em>having</em> sorrow in my heart daily? how long shall my enemy be exalted over me?
2
How long must I wrestle with my thoughts and day after day have sorrow in my heart? How long will my enemy triumph over me?
3 Consider <em>and</em> hear me, O LORD my God: lighten mine eyes lest I sleep the <em>sleep of</em> death,
3
Look on me and answer, LORD my God. Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep in death,
4 lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him; <em>and</em> those that trouble me rejoice when I am moved.
4
and my enemy will say, “I have overcome him,” and my foes will rejoice when I fall.
5 But I have trusted in thy mercy; my heart shall rejoice in thy salvation.
5
But I trust in your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in your salvation.
6 I will sing unto the LORD because he has dealt bountifully with me.
6
I will sing the LORD’s praise, for he has been good to me.
