Psalms 13

1 For the chief musician. A psalm of David. How long, Yahweh, will you keep forgetting about me? How long will you hide your face from me?

2 How long must I worry and have grief in my heart all day? How long will my enemy triumph over me?

3 Look at me and answer me, Yahweh my God! Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep in death.

4 Do not let my enemy say, “I have defeated him,” so that my enemy may not say, “I have prevailed over my adversary”; otherwise, my enemies will rejoice when I am brought down.

5 But I have trusted in your covenant faithfulness; my heart rejoices in your salvation.

6 I will sing to Yahweh because he has treated me very generously.
