1 How long, Lord? Will you forget me

forever?

How long will you hide your face from me?q

2 How long will I store up anxious concernsI within me,

agony in my mind every day?

How long will my enemy dominate me?r

3 Consider me and answer, Lord my God.

Restore brightness to my eyes;s

otherwise, I will sleep in death.

4 My enemy will say, “I have triumphed over him,”

and my foes will rejoice because I am shaken.t

5 But I have trusted in your faithful love;u

my heart will rejoice in your deliverance.v

6 I will sing to the Lord

because he has treated me generously.w
