New King James Version | Holman Christian Standard Bible |
1To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. How 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 shall I take counsel in my soul, Having sorrow in my heart daily? How long will 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 hear me, O LORD my God; Enlighten 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 against him”; Lest those who trouble me rejoice when I am moved. | 4My enemy will say, "I have triumphed over him," and my foes will rejoice because I am shaken. |
5But I have trusted in Your mercy; 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. |
