| 1For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. How long, O LORD? Will You forget me forever? How long will You hide Your face from me? | 1How long? LORD, will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me? |
| 2How long must I wrestle in my soul, with sorrow in my heart each day? How long will my enemy dominate me? | 2How long must I struggle in my soul at night and have sorrow in my heart during the day? How long will my enemy rise up against me? |
| 3Consider me and respond, O LORD my God. Give light to my eyes, lest I sleep in death, | 3Look at me! Answer me, LORD, my God! Give light to my eyes! Otherwise, I will sleep in death; |
| 4lest my enemy say, “I have overcome him,” and my foes rejoice when I fall. | 4Otherwise, my enemy will say, "I have overcome him;" Otherwise, my persecutor will rejoice when I am shaken. |
| 5But I have trusted in Your loving devotion; my heart will rejoice in Your salvation. | 5As for me, I have trusted in your gracious love, my heart will rejoice in your deliverance. |
| 6I will sing to the LORD, for He has been good to me. | 6I will sing to the LORD, for he has dealt bountifully with me. |
