Psalms 13

MSG

KJV

1 Long enough, God - you've ignored me long enough. I've looked at the back of your head
1 How long wilt thou forget me, O LORD? for ever? how long wilt thou hide thy face from me?
2 Long enough I've carried this ton of trouble, lived with a stomach full of pain. Long enough my arrogant enemies have looked down their noses at me.
2 How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart daily? how long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?
3 Take a good look at me, God, my God; I want to look life in the eye,
3 Consider and hear me, O LORD my God: lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;
4 So no enemy can get the best of me or laugh when I fall on my face.
4 Lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him; and those that trouble me rejoice when I am moved.
5 I've thrown myself headlong into your arms - I'm celebrating your rescue.
5 But I have trusted in thy mercy; my heart shall rejoice in thy salvation.
6 I'm singing at the top of my lungs, I'm so full of answered prayers.
6 I will sing unto the LORD, because he hath dealt bountifully with me.
