Psalm 13
Brenton's Septuagint Translation Par ▾ 

How Long, O LORD?

1(12:1) For the end, a Psalm of David. How long, O Lord, wilt thou forget me? for ever? how long wilt thou turn away thy face from me?

2(12:2) How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrows in my heart daily? how long shall my enemy be exalted over me?

3(12:3) Look on me, hearken to me, O Lord my God: lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep in death;

4(12:4) lest at any time mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him: my persecutors will exult if ever I should be moved.

5(12:5) But I have hoped in thy mercy; my heart shall exult in thy salvation.

6(12:6) I will sing to the Lord who has dealt bountifully with me, and I will sing psalms to the name of the Lord most high.
