Psalm 13

1. How long wilt Thou forget me, O Lord? For ever? How long wilt Thou hide Thy face from me?

2. How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart daily? How long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?

3. Consider and hear me, O Lord my God; lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;

4. lest mine enemy say, “I have prevailed against him”; and those that trouble me rejoice when I am moved.

5. But I have trusted in Thy mercy; my heart shall rejoice in Thy salvation.

6. I will sing unto the Lord, because He hath dealt bountifully with me.
