1How long, O Jehovah? Will thou forget me forever? How long will thou hide thy face from me?
2How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart all the day? How long shall my enemy be exalted over me?
3Consider and answer me, O Jehovah my God. Lighten my eyes, lest I sleep the death,
4lest my enemy say, I have prevailed against him, lest my adversaries rejoice when I am moved.
5But I have trusted in thy loving kindness. My heart shall rejoice in thy salvation.
6I will sing to Jehovah because he has dealt bountifully with me.
