1 How long, LORD? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?
1
<<For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.>> How long, Yahweh? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from 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?
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 Look on me and answer, LORD my God. Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep in death,
3
Behold, and answer me, Yahweh, my God. Give light to my eyes, lest I sleep in death;
4 and my enemy will say, “I have overcome him,” and my foes will rejoice when I fall.
4
Lest my enemy say, "I have prevailed against him;" Lest my adversaries rejoice when I fall.
5 But I trust in your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in your salvation.
5
But I trust in your lovingkindness. My heart rejoices in your salvation.
6 I will sing the LORD’s praise, for he has been good to me.
6
I will sing to Yahweh, Because he has been good to me.
