Trust in the Salvation of Yahweh
13 For the music director. A psalm of David.a
1 How long, O Yahweh? Will you forget me forever?
How long will you hide your face from me?
2 How long must I take counselb in my soul,
and sorrow in my heart all the day?
How long will my enemy be exalted over me?
3 Considerc and answer me, O Yahweh my God.
Give light to my eyes
lest I sleep the sleep of death,
4 and lest my enemy should say, “I have overcome him,”
lest my enemies rejoice because I am shaken.
5 But as for me, I have trusted in your steadfast love.d
My heart will rejoice in your deliverance.
6e I will sing to Yahweh
because he has dealt bountifully with me.
