Why do You hide Your face and forget our affliction and distress?
Why do You hide Your face and count me for Your enemy?
And He said, I will hide My face from them; I will see what their end will be; for they are a perverse generation, sons in whom is no faithfulness.
Do not forget the voice of ones vexing You; the noise of those rising up against You is going up continually.
Do not give the soul of Your turtledove to the wild beasts; You will not forever forget the life of Your afflicted ones.
I will say to God my Rock, Why have You forgotten me? Why do I go darkened when the enemy oppresses me?
To the chief musician. A Psalm of David. Until when will You forget me, O Jehovah? Forever? Until when will You hide Your face from me?
He has said in his heart, God has forgotten; He hides His face; He will not see forever.
Why do You stand far away, O Jehovah? Will You hide in times of distress?
Stir Yourself and awaken to my judgment, to my cause, my God and my Lord.
Awake! Awake! Arm of Jehovah, put on strength. Awake, as in days of old, everlasting generations. Was it not You cutting in pieces Rahab, and piercing the sea monster?
