- 1How long, the Lord? 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 every day? How long shall my enemy triumph over me?
- 3Behold, and answer me, the Lord, my God. Give light to my eyes, lest I sleep in death;
- 4Lest my enemy say, “I have prevailed against him”; Lest my adversaries rejoice when I fall.
- 5But I trust in your loving kindness. My heart rejoices in your salvation.
- 6I will sing to the Lord, because he has been good to me.
