Psalm 13 - English Standard Version 2016 English Standard Version 2016
Psalm 13

¹ How long, O Lord? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?

² How long must I take counsel in my soul and have sorrow in my heart all the day? How long shall my enemy be exalted over me?

³ Consider and answer me, O Lord my God; light up my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death,

⁴ lest my enemy say, “I have prevailed over him,” lest my foes rejoice because I am shaken.

⁵ But I have trusted in your steadfast love; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation.

⁶ I will sing to the Lord, because he has dealt bountifully with me.
