Psalm 13:2-4

International Standard Version

²How long must I struggle in my soul at night
    and have sorrow in my heart during the day?
        How long will my enemy rise up against me?
³Look at me!
    Answer me, Lord, my God!
Give light to my eyes!
    Otherwise, I will sleep in death;
⁴Otherwise, my enemy will say,
    “I have overcome him;”
Otherwise, my persecutor will rejoice
    when I am shaken.
