Psalm 13:1-6

For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. 13  How long, O Jehovah? wilt thou forget me for ever? How long wilt thou hide thy face from me? 2  How long shall I take counsel in my soul, Having sorrow in my heart all the day? How long shall mine enemy be exalted over me? 3  Consider and answer me, O Jehovah my God: Lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death; 4  Lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him; Lest mine adversaries rejoice when I am moved. 5  But I have trusted in thy lovingkindness; My heart shall rejoice in thy salvation. 6  I will sing unto Jehovah, Because he hath dealt bountifully with me.
