Psalm 13

Usquequo, Domine?

The Book of Common Prayer (1979) · 6 verses

  1. 1

    How long, O LORD? will you forget me for ever? *
    how long will you hide your face from me?

  2. 2

    How long shall I have perplexity in my mind, and grief in my heart, day after day? *
    how long shall my enemy triumph over me?

  3. 3

    Look upon me and answer me, O LORD my God; *
    give light to my eyes, lest I sleep in death;

  4. 4

    Lest my enemy say, "I have prevailed over him," *
    and my foes rejoice that I have fallen.

  5. 5

    But I put my trust in your mercy; *
    my heart is joyful because of your saving help.

  6. 6

    I will sing to the LORD, for he has dealt with me richly; *
    I will praise the Name of the Lord Most High.
