1How long? LORD, will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me? | 1For the music director; a psalm of David. How long, LORD, will you continue to ignore me? How long will you pay no attention to me? |
2How long must I struggle in my soul at night and have sorrow in my heart during the day? How long will my enemy rise up against me? | 2How long must I worry, and suffer in broad daylight? How long will my enemy gloat over me? |
3Look at me! Answer me, LORD, my God! Give light to my eyes! Otherwise, I will sleep in death; | 3Look at me! Answer me, O LORD my God! Revive me, or else I will die! |
4Otherwise, my enemy will say, "I have overcome him;" Otherwise, my persecutor will rejoice when I am shaken. | 4Then my enemy will say, "I have defeated him!" Then my foes will rejoice because I am upended. |
5As for me, I have trusted in your gracious love, my heart will rejoice in your deliverance. | 5But I trust in your faithfulness. May I rejoice because of your deliverance! |
6I will sing to the LORD, for he has dealt bountifully with me. | 6I will sing praises to the LORD when he vindicates me. |
