A Plea for Deliverance

For the director of music. A Psalm of David.

1HOW long, O Lord? Will You forget me forever?
How long will You hide Your face from me?

2 How long must I be grieved with my thoughts,
and have sorrow in my heart every day? How long will my enemy triumph over me?   3 Consider and hear me, O Lord my God.
Give light to my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death. 4 My enemies will say, “I have prevailed over him;”
and my foes will rejoice when I fall.   5 But I have trusted in Your unfailing love;
my heart rejoices in Your salvation. 6 I will sing to the Lord,
because He has dealt bountifully with me.
