12
(13) For the end, a Psalm of David.
1 How long, O Lord, will you forget me? for ever? how long will you turn away your face from me?
2 How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrows in my heart daily? how long shall my enemy be exalted over me?
3 Look on me, listen to me, O Lord my God: lighten my eyes, lest I sleep in death;
4 lest at any time my enemy say, I have prevailed against him: my persecutors will exult if ever I should be moved.
5 But I have hoped in your mercy; my heart shall exult in your salvation.
6 I will sing to the Lord who has dealt bountifully with me, and I will sing psalms to the name of the Lord most high.
