Psalm 13
Living Bible

13 How long will you forget me, Lord? Forever? How long will you look the other way when I am in need? 2 How long must I be hiding daily anguish in my heart? How long shall my enemy have the upper hand?

3 Answer me, O Lord my God; give me light in my darkness lest I die. 4 Don’t let my enemies say, “We have conquered him!” Don’t let them gloat that I am down.

5 But I will always trust in you and in your mercy and shall rejoice in your salvation. 6 I will sing to the Lord because he has blessed me so richly.

Psalm 13
Legacy Standard Bible

How Long, O Yahweh?

For the choir director. A Psalm of David.

13 How long, O Yahweh? Will You (A)forget me forever?
How long (B)will You hide Your face from me?
2 How 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)Look and answer me, O Yahweh my God;
(F)Give light to my eyes, lest I (G)sleep the sleep of death,
4 Lest my enemy (H)says, “I have overcome him,”
And (I)my adversaries rejoice that I am shaken.

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