Psalm 13 The Message (MSG)

A David Psalm

1-2. Long enough, God—you’ve ignored me long enough.I’ve looked at the back of your headlong enough. Long enoughI’ve carried this ton of trouble,lived with a stomach full of pain.Long enough my arrogant enemieshave looked down their noses at me.

3-4. Take a good look at me, God, my God;I want to look life in the eye,So no enemy can get the best of meor laugh when I fall on my face.

5-6. I’ve thrown myself headlong into your arms—I’m celebrating your rescue.I’m singing at the top of my lungs,I’m so full of answered prayers.
