Psalms 13

1 “For the leader of the music. A psalm of David.” How long, O LORD! wilt thou forget me for ever? How long wilt thou hide thy face from me?

To the choirmaster a psalm of David. Until when? O Yahweh will you forget me perpetuity until when? - will you hide face your from me.

2 How long shall I have anxiety in my soul for ever, And sorrow in my heart all the day? How long shall my enemy be exalted over me?

Until when? will I set counsel in soul my sorrow in heart my by day until when? - will he be exalted enemy my over me.

3 Look down and hear me, O LORD, my God! Enlighten my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;

Pay attention! answer me O Yahweh God my give light to! eyes my lest I should sleep the death.

4 Lest my enemy say, “I have prevailed against him!” Lest my adversaries rejoice, when I am fallen.

Lest he should say enemy my I have prevailed over him opponents my they will rejoice if I am shaken.

5 Yet will I trust in thy goodness; My heart shall rejoice in thy salvation;

And I - in covenant loyalty your I have trusted may it rejoice heart my in deliverance your

6 I will sing to the LORD, that he hath dealt kindly with me.

I will sing to Yahweh for he has dealt bountifully towards me.
