Psalm 13
To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.

8,6,8,6

^1How long wilt thou forget me, Lord?

shall it for ever be?

O how long shall it be that thou

wilt hide thy face from me?

^2How long take counsel in my soul,

still sad in heart, shall I?

How long exalted over me

shall be mine enemy?

^3O Lord my God, consider well,

and answer to me make:

Mine eyes enlighten, lest the sleep

of death me overtake:

^4Lest that mine enemy should say,

Against him I prevail'd;

And those that trouble me rejoice,

when I am mov'd and fail'd.

^5But I have all my confidence

thy mercy set upon;

My heart within me shall rejoice

in thy salvation.

^6I will unto the Lord my God

sing praises cheerfully,

Because he hath his bounty shown

to me abundantly.
