1 How long, Yahweh?
Will you forget me forever?
How long will you hide your face from me?
2 How long shall I take counsel in my soul,
having sorrow in my heart every day?
How long shall my enemy triumph over me?
3 Behold, and answer me, Yahweh, my God.
Give light to my eyes, lest I sleep in death;
4 lest my enemy say, "I have prevailed against him;"
lest my adversaries rejoice when I fall.
5 But I trust in your loving kindness.
My heart rejoices in your salvation.
6 I will sing to Yahweh,
because he has been good to me.

1 Vir die musiekleier. 'n Psalm van Dawid.2 Hoe lank, HERE, sal U my altyddeur vergeet? Hoe lank sal U vir my u aangesig verberg?3 Hoe lank sal ek planne beraam in my siel, met kommer in my hart oordag? Hoe lank sal my vyand hom oor my verhef?4 Aanskou tog, verhoor my, HERE, my God! Verlig my oë, sodat ek nie in die dood inslaap nie;5 sodat my vyand nie kan sê: Ek het hom oorwin nie, en my teëstanders nie juig as ek wankel nie.6 Maar ek -- op u goedertierenheid vertrou ek; my hart sal juig oor u heil. Ek wil sing tot eer van die HERE, omdat Hy aan my goed gedoen het.
