Prayer for Help in Trouble.
For the choir director. A Psalm of David.
How long, O Loʀᴅ? Will You Aforget me forever?
How long Bwill You hide Your face from me?
How long shall I Atake counsel in my soul,
Having Bsorrow in my heart all the day?
How long will my enemy be exalted over me?
 
AConsider and answer me, O Loʀᴅ my God;
BEnlighten my eyes, or I will Csleep the sleep of death,
And my enemy will Asay, “I have overcome him,”
And Bmy adversaries will rejoice when I am shaken.
 
But I have Atrusted in Your lovingkindness;
My heart shall Brejoice in Your salvation.
I will Asing to the Loʀᴅ,
Because He has Bdealt bountifully with me.
