Psalm 13

To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.

₁How long wilt thou forget me, O LORD? for ever?

How long wilt thou hide thy face from me?

₂How long shall I take counsel in my soul, Having sorrow in my heart daily?

How long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?

₃Consider and hear me, O LORD my God:

Lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;

₄Lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him;

And those that trouble me rejoice when I am moved.

₅But I have trusted in thy mercy;

My heart shall rejoice in thy salvation.

₆I will sing unto the LORD, because he hath dealt bountifully with me.
