Psalm 13

New American Standard Bible 1995

Prayer for Help in Trouble.

For the choir director. A Psalm of David.

13 How long, O Lord? Will You ^(A)forget me forever?
How long ^(B)will You hide Your face from me?
²How long shall I ^(C)take counsel in my soul,
Having ^(D)sorrow in my heart all the day?
How long will my enemy be exalted over me?

³^(E)Consider and answer me, O Lord my God;
^(F)Enlighten my eyes, or I will ^(G)sleep the sleep of death,
⁴And my enemy will ^(H)say, “I have overcome him,”
And ^(I)my adversaries will rejoice when I am shaken.

⁵But I have ^(J)trusted in Your lovingkindness;
My heart shall ^(K)rejoice in Your salvation.
⁶I will ^(L)sing to the Lord,
Because He has ^(M)dealt bountifully with me.
