1 耶和华啊! 你忘记我要到几时呢?要到永远吗?你掩面不顾我, 要到几时呢?

2 我心里筹算不安, 内心终日愁苦, 要到几时呢?我的仇敌胜过我, 要到几时呢?

3 耶和华我的 神啊! 求你看顾我, 应允我; 求你使我的眼睛明亮, 免得我沉睡至死;

4 免得我的仇敌说: "我胜过了他"; 免得我跌倒的时候我的敌人就欢呼。

5 至于我, 我倚靠你的慈爱, 我的心必因你的救恩欢呼。

6 我要歌颂耶和华, 因他以厚恩待我。(本章第5-6节在《马索拉抄本》为13:6)

For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.

1 How long, O Jehovah? wilt thou forget me for ever?

How long wilt thou hide thy face from me?

2 How long shall I take counsel in my soul,

Having sorrow in my heart all the day?

How long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?

3 Consider and answer me, O Jehovah my God:

Lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;

4 Lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him;

Lest mine adversaries rejoice when I am moved.

5 But I have trusted in thy lovingkindness;

My heart shall rejoice in thy salvation.

6 I will sing unto Jehovah,

Because he hath dealt bountifully with me.
