Psalm 13. Usquequo, Domine?

1. How long, O Lord? will you forget me for ever? *
   how long will you hide your face from me?
2. How long shall I have perplexity in my mind, and grief in my heart, day after day? *
   how long shall my enemy triumph over me?
3. Look upon me and answer me, O Lord my God; *
   give light to my eyes, lest I sleep in death;
4. Lest my enemy say, "I have prevailed over him," *
   and my foes rejoice that I have fallen.
5. But I put my trust in your mercy; *
   my heart is joyful because of your saving help.
6. I will sing to the Lord, for he has dealt with me richly; *
   I will praise the Name of the Lord Most High.
