To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.
1 How long, O Lord? Will you forget me forever?
How long will you hide your face from me?
and have sorrow in my heart all the day?
How long shall my enemy be exalted over me?
light up my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death,
lest my foes rejoice because I am shaken.
my heart shall rejoice in your salvation.
because he has dealt bountifully with me.
