PSALM 13
Prayer for Help in Trouble.
For the music director. A Psalm of David.
1How long, Lord? Will You forget me forever?
How long will You hide Your face from me?
2How long am I to feel anxious in my soul,
With grief in my heart all the day?
How long will my enemy be exalted over me?
Enlighten my eyes, or I will sleep the sleep of death,
4And my enemy will say, “I have overcome him,”
And my adversaries will rejoice when I am shaken.
5But I have trusted in Your faithfulness;
My heart shall rejoice in Your salvation.
6I will sing to the Lord,
Because He has looked after me.
