For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.

How long, O Jehovah? wilt thou forget me for ever?

How long wilt thou hide thy face from me?

How long shall I take counsel in my soul,

Having sorrow in my heart all the day?

How long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?

Consider and answer me, O Jehovah my God:

Lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;

Lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him;

Lest mine adversaries rejoice when I am moved.

But I have trusted in thy lovingkindness;

My heart shall rejoice in thy salvation.

I will sing unto Jehovah,

Because he hath dealt bountifully with me.
