Trust in His Chesed

Psalm 13

For the music director, a psalm of David.
How long, Adonai? Will You forget me forever?
    How long will You hide Your face from me?
How long must I have cares in my soul
    and daily sorrow in my heart?
How long will my enemy triumph over me?
Look at me and answer, Adonai my God.
Light up my eyes, or I will sleep in death.
Or else my enemy will say: “I have overcome him!”
    and my foes will rejoice because I am shaken.

But I trust in Your lovingkindness,
    my heart rejoices in Your salvation.
I will sing to Adonai,
    because He has been good to me.

Trust in the Salvation of the Lord

To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.

13 How long, O Lord? Will You forget me forever?
(A)How long will You hide Your face from me?
How long shall I take counsel in my soul,
Having sorrow in my heart daily?
How long will my enemy be exalted over me?

Consider and hear me, O Lord my God;
(B)Enlighten my eyes,
(C)Lest I sleep the sleep of death;
Lest my enemy say,
“I have prevailed against him”;
Lest those who trouble me rejoice when I am moved.

But I have trusted in Your mercy;
My heart shall rejoice in Your salvation.
I will sing to the Lord,
Because He has dealt bountifully with me.
