font
KING JAMES BIBLENEW JERUSALEM
1 How long wilt thou forget me, O LORD? for ever? how long wilt thou hide thy face from me?1 [For the choirmaster Psalm Of David] How long, Yahweh, wil you forget me? For ever? How long wilyou turn away your face from me?
2 How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart daily? how long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?2 How long must I nurse rebel ion in my soul, sorrow in my heart day and night? How long is the enemyto domineer over me?
3 Consider and hear me, O LORD my God: lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;3 Look down, answer me, Yahweh my God! Give light to my eyes or I shal fal into the sleep of death.
4 Lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him; and those that trouble me rejoice when I am moved.4 Or my foe will boast, 'I have overpowered him,' and my enemy have the joy of seeing me stumble.
5 But I have trusted in thy mercy; my heart shall rejoice in thy salvation.5 As for me, I trust in your faithful love, Yahweh. Let my heart delight in your saving help, let me sing toYahweh for his generosity to me, let me sing to the name of Yahweh the Most High!
6 I will sing unto the LORD, because he hath dealt bountifully with me.
