Psalm 13

1How long, O LORD? Will you forget me forever?
   How long will you hide your face from me? 2How 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?

3Consider and answer me, O LORD my God;
   light up my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death, 4lest my enemy say, "I have prevailed over him,"
   lest my foes rejoice because I am shaken.

5But I have trusted in your steadfast love;
   my heart shall rejoice in your salvation. 6I will sing to the LORD,
   because he has dealt bountifully with me.
