How
long, Yahweh?
Will
you forget me forever?
How
long will you hide your face from me?
How
long shall I take counsel in my soul,
having
sorrow in my heart every day?
How
long shall my enemy triumph over me?
Behold,
and answer me, Yahweh, my God.
Give
light to my eyes, lest I sleep in death;
lest
my enemy say, “I have prevailed against him;”
lest
my adversaries rejoice when I fall.
But
I trust in your loving kindness.
My
heart rejoices in your salvation.
I
will sing to Yahweh,
because
he has been good to me.
Psalm 13
