Psalmorum 13

1 in finem psalmus David 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 exaudi me Domine Deus meus inlumina oculos meos ne umquam obdormiam in mortem

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

5 nequando 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!
