1How long, O LORD? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me? | 1For the choir director. A Davidic psalm. LORD, how long will You forget me? Forever? How long will You hide Your face from me? |
2How 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? | 2How long will I store up anxious concerns within me, agony in my mind every day? How long will my enemy dominate me? |
3Consider and answer me, O LORD my God; light up my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death, | 3Consider me and answer, LORD my God. Restore brightness to my eyes; otherwise, I will sleep in death. |
4lest my enemy say, “I have prevailed over him,” lest my foes rejoice because I am shaken. | 4My enemy will say, "I have triumphed over him," and my foes will rejoice because I am shaken. |
5But I have trusted in your steadfast love; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation. | 5But I have trusted in Your faithful love; my heart will rejoice in Your deliverance. |
6I will sing to the LORD, because he has dealt bountifully with me. | 6I will sing to the LORD because He has treated me generously. |
