{\b For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.}\par\par\tab How long, O Jehovah? wilt thou forget me for ever?\par\tab How long wilt thou hide thy face from me?
{\b Maschil of Asaph.}\par\par\tab O God, why hast thou cast {\i us} off for ever?\par\tab Why doth thine anger smoke against the sheep of thy pasture?
I have set watchmen upon thy walls, O Jerusalem; they shall never hold their peace day nor night: ye that are Jehovah's remembrancers, take ye no rest,
Why shouldest thou be as a man affrighted, as a mighty man that cannot save? Yet thou, O Jehovah, art in the midst of us, and we are called by thy name; leave us not.\par
