1How long, Yahweh? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?
1大卫的诗，交给诗班长。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？
2How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart every day? How long shall my enemy triumph over me?
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？
3Behold, and answer me, Yahweh, my God. Give light to my eyes, lest I sleep in death;
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；
4Lest my enemy say, “I have prevailed against him”; Lest my adversaries rejoice when I fall.
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。
5But I trust in your loving kindness. My heart rejoices in your salvation.
5至于我，我倚靠你的慈爱，我的心必因你的救恩欢呼。
6I will sing to Yahweh, because he has been good to me.
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）
