New International Version NIV
Young's Literal Translation YLT
1 How long, LORD? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?
1
To the Overseer. -- A Psalm of David. Till when, O Jehovah, Dost Thou forget me? -- for ever? Till when dost Thou hide Thy 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
Till when do I set counsels in my soul? Sorrow inn my heart daily? Till when is mine enemy exalted over me?
3 Look on me and answer, LORD my God. Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep in death,
3
Look attentively; Answer me, O Jehovah, my God, Enlighten mine 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 mine enemy say, `I overcame him,' Mine adversaries joy when I am moved.
5 But I trust in your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in your salvation.
5
And I, in Thy kindness I have trusted, Rejoice doth my heart in Thy salvation.
6 I will sing the LORD’s praise, for he has been good to me.
6
I do sing to Jehovah, For He hath conferred benefits upon me!
