1How long? LORD, will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me? | 1For the director of music. A psalm of David. How long, LORD? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from 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 wrestle with my thoughts and day after day have sorrow in my heart? How long will my enemy triumph over me? |
3Look at me! Answer me, LORD, my God! Give light to my eyes! Otherwise, I will sleep in death; | 3Look on me and answer, LORD my God. Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep in death, |
4Otherwise, my enemy will say, "I have overcome him;" Otherwise, my persecutor will rejoice when I am shaken. | 4and my enemy will say, "I have overcome him," and my foes will rejoice when I fall. |
5As for me, I have trusted in your gracious love, my heart will rejoice in your deliverance. | 5But I trust in your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in your salvation. |
6I will sing to the LORD, for he has dealt bountifully with me. | 6I will sing the LORD's praise, for he has been good to me. |
