Bay Psalm BookPsalm 13

Only Version SM/SMD · 6·6·8·6 (D)

To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.

1 O Jehovah, how long wilt thou forget me aye? how long wilt thou thy countenance hide from me far away? 2 How long shall I counsel, in my soul take, sorrow in my heart daily? O’er me set how long shall be my foe?

3 Jehovah, O my God, behold me answer make, illuminate mine eyes, lest I the sleep of death do take. 4 Lest my foe say, I have prevail’d ‘gainst him: and me those who do trouble, do rejoice, when I shall moved be.

5 But I assured trust have put in thy mercy; my heart in thy salvation shall joy exceedingly. 6 Unto Jehovah I will sing, because that he, for evil bountifully hath rewarded good to me.
