Psalms 13 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

1. Lord, how long will You forget me?Forever?How long will You hide Your face from me?

A Plea for Deliverance

2. How long will I store up anxious concerns within me,agony in my mind every day?How long will my enemy dominate me?

3. Consider me and answer, Lord my God.Restore brightness to my eyes; otherwise, I will sleep in death.

4. My enemy will say, “I have triumphed over him,”and my foes will rejoice because I am shaken.

5. But I have trusted in Your faithful love; my heart will rejoice in Your deliverance.

6. I will sing to the Lordbecause He has treated me generously.
