Psalms 13

   |   

Prayer for Help in Trouble.

To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.

1 How long, O LORD? Will You (C1)forget me forever?
How long (C2)will You hide Your face from me?

2 How long must I (C1)take counsel in my soul,
Having (C2)sorrow in my heart day after day?
How long will my enemy exalt himself and triumph over me?

3 (C1)Consider and answer me, O LORD my God;
(C2)Give light (life) to my eyes, or I will (C3)sleep the sleep of death,

4 And my enemy will (C1)say, "I have overcome him,"
And (C2)my adversaries will rejoice when I am shaken.

5 But I have (C1)trusted and relied on and been confident in Your lovingkindness and faithfulness;
My heart shall (C2)rejoice and delight in Your salvation.

6 I will (C1)sing to the LORD,
Because He has (C2)dealt bountifully with me.
