New American Standard Bible NAS
English Standard Version ESV
1 How long, O LORD ? Will You forget me forever? How long will You hide Your face from me?
1 How long, O 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, Having sorrow in my heart all the day? How long will my enemy be exalted over me?
2 How long must I take counsel in my soul and have sorrow in my heart all the day? How long shall my enemy be exalted over me?
3 Consider and answer me, O LORD my God; Enlighten my eyes, or I will sleep the sleep of death,
3 Consider and answer me, O LORD my God; light up my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death,
4 And my enemy will say, "I have overcome him," And my adversaries will rejoice when I am shaken.
4 lest my enemy say, "I have prevailed over him," lest my foes rejoice because I am shaken.
5 But I have trusted in Your lovingkindness; My heart shall rejoice in Your salvation.
5 But I have trusted in your steadfast love; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation.
6 I will sing to the LORD , Because He has dealt bountifully with me.
6 I will sing to the LORD, because he has dealt bountifully with me.
