To the Overseer. — A Psalm of David. Till when, O Jehovah, Dost Thou forget me? — for ever? Till when dost Thou hide Thy face from me?

2 Until when do I set counsels in my soul, [With] sorrow in my heart daily? Until when is my enemy exalted over me?

Till when do I set counsels in my soul? Sorrow in my heart daily? Till when is mine enemy exalted over me?

3 Look attentively; Answer me, O YHWH, my God, Enlighten my eyes, lest I sleep in death,

4 Lest my enemy say, “I overcame him,” My adversaries rejoice when I am moved.

5 And I have trusted in Your kindness, My heart rejoices in Your salvation.

And I, in Thy kindness I have trusted, Rejoice doth my heart in Thy salvation.

6 I sing to YHWH, For He has conferred benefits on me!

I do sing to Jehovah, For He hath conferred benefits upon me!
