How long, LORD? Will you utterly forget me?
How long will you hide your face from me?
How long must I bear grief in my soul,
This sorrow in my heart day and night?
How long will my enemy triumph over me?
Look upon me, answer me, LORD, my God!
Give light to my eyes lest, I sleep in death,
lest my enemy say, “I have overcome him:,
lest my foes rejoice to see my fall.
As for me, I trust in your merciful love.
Let my heart rejoice in your saving help:
Let me sing to the Lord for his goodness to me,
Signing psalms to the name of the Lord, The Most High.
