Psalms 13

1 Yahweh, how long will you continue to forget about me [RHQ]? Will you hide yourself [SYN] from me forever?

Unto the end, a psalm for David. How long, O Lord, wilt thou forget me unto the end? how long dost thou turn away thy face from me?

2 How long must I endure anguish/worry? Must I be miserable/sad every day? How long will my enemies continue to defeat me?

How long shall I take counsels in my soul, sorrow in my heart all the day?

3 Yahweh my God, look at me and answer me. Enable me to become strong [again] [IDM], and do not allow me to die.

How long shall my enemy be exalted over me?

4 Do not allow my enemies [to boast] saying, “We have defeated him!” Do not allow them to defeat me, with the result that they will rejoice about it!

Consider, and hear me, O Lord my God. Enlighten my eyes that I never sleep in death:

5 But I trust that you will faithfully love me; I will rejoice when you rescue me.

Lest at any time my enemy say: I have prevailed against him. They that trouble me will rejoice when I am moved:

6 Yahweh, you have done many good things for me, so I will sing to you.

But I have trusted in thy mercy. My heart shall rejoice in thy salvation: I will sing to the Lord, who giveth me good things: yea I will sing to the name of the Lord the most high.
