Psalm 13
JPS Tanakh 1917
1For the Leader. A Psalm of David.

2How long, O LORD, wilt Thou forget me for ever?
How long wilt Thou hide Thy face from me?
3How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart by day?
How long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?
4Behold Thou, and answer me, O LORD my God;
Lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;
5Lest mine enemy say: ‘I have prevailed against him’;
Lest mine adversaries rejoice when I am moved.

6But as for me, in Thy mercy do I trust;
My heart shall rejoice in Thy salvation.
7I will sing unto the LORD,
Because He hath dealt bountifully with me.
