1 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.
