| 1To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. How long, O LORD? Will You forget me forever? How long will You hide Your face from me? | 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? |
| 2How long shall I take counsel in my soul, Having sorrow in my heart daily? How long will my enemy be exalted over me? | 2How long must I wrestle in my soul, with sorrow in my heart each day? How long will my enemy dominate me? |
| 3Consider and hear me, O LORD my God; Enlighten my eyes, Lest I sleep the sleep of death; | 3Consider me and respond, O LORD my God. Give light to my eyes, lest I sleep in death, |
| 4Lest my enemy say, “I have prevailed against him”; Lest those who trouble me rejoice when I am moved. | 4lest my enemy say, “I have overcome him,” and my foes rejoice when I fall. |
| 5But I have trusted in Your mercy; My heart shall rejoice in Your salvation. | 5But I have trusted in Your loving devotion; my heart will rejoice in Your salvation. |
| 6I will sing to the LORD, Because He has dealt bountifully with me. | 6I will sing to the LORD, for He has been good to me. |
