1
How long, Lord, are you going to forget me? Forever? How long will you turn away from me?
2
How long must I be in inner turmoil, feeling sad all day long? How long will my enemy be victorious over me?
3
Think about this, and answer me, Lord my God. Give me back my strength,* otherwise I'm going to die,
4
and my enemy will say, “I defeated him!” and my opponents will celebrate my downfall.
5
But I trust in your never-failing love, I will be happy because you save me.
6
I will sing to the Lord because he has treated me with such generosity!
