Psalmorum 13

1 Psalmus David, in finem. Usquequo Domine oblivisceris me in finem? Usquequo avertis faciem tuam a me?

TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID. Until when, O YHWH, Do You forget me forever? Until when do You hide Your face from me?

2 Quamdiu ponam consilia in anima mea, dolorem in corde meo per diem?

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

3 Usquequo exaltabitur inimicus meus super me?

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

4 respice, et exaudi me Domine Deus meus. Illumina oculos meos ne umquam obdormiam in morte:

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

5 ne quando dicat inimicus meus: Praevalui adversus eum. Qui tribulant me, exultabunt si motus fuero:

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

6 ego autem in misericordia tua speravi. Exultabit cor meum in salutari tuo: cantabo Domino qui bona tribuit mihi: et psallam nomini Domini altissimi.

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