For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. How long, O Lord? Will You forget me forever? How long will You hide Your face from me? (MT 13:2; LXX 12:1; LXX 12:2; Rahlfs 12:1; Rahlfs 12:2)
לַמְנַצֵּ֗חַ מִזְמ֥וֹר לְדָוִֽד׃
2How long must I wrestle in my soul, with sorrow in my heart each day? How long will my enemy dominate me? (MT 13:3; LXX 12:3; Rahlfs 12:3)
עַד־אָ֣נָה יְ֭הוָה תִּשְׁכָּחֵ֣נִי נֶ֑צַח עַד־אָ֓נָה ׀ תַּסְתִּ֖יר אֶת־פָּנֶ֣יךָ מִמֶּֽנִּי׃
3Consider me and respond, O Lord my God. Give light to my eyes, lest I sleep in death, (MT 13:4; LXX 12:4; Rahlfs 12:4)
עַד־אָ֨נָה אָשִׁ֪ית עֵצ֡וֹת בְּנַפְשִׁ֗י יָג֣וֹן בִּלְבָבִ֣י יוֹמָ֑ם עַד־אָ֓נָה ׀ יָר֖וּם אֹיְבִ֣י עָלָֽי׃
4lest my enemy say, “I have overcome him,” and my foes rejoice when I fall. (MT 13:5; LXX 12:5; Rahlfs 12:5)
הַבִּ֣יטָֽה עֲ֭נֵנִי יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהָ֑י הָאִ֥ירָה עֵ֝ינַ֗י פֶּן־אִישַׁ֥ן הַמָּֽוֶת׃
5But I have trusted in Your loving devotion; my heart will rejoice in Your salvation. (MT 13:6; LXX 12:6; Rahlfs 12:6)
פֶּן־יֹאמַ֣ר אֹיְבִ֣י יְכָלְתִּ֑יו צָרַ֥י יָ֝גִ֗ילוּ כִּ֣י אֶמּֽוֹט׃
6I will sing to the Lord, for He has been good to me. (LXX 12:6; Rahlfs 12:6)
וַאֲנִ֤י ׀ בְּחַסְדְּךָ֣ בָטַחְתִּי֮ יָ֤גֵ֥ל לִבִּ֗י בִּֽישׁוּעָ֫תֶ֥ךָ אָשִׁ֥ירָה לַיהוָ֑ה כִּ֖י גָמַ֣ל עָלָֽי׃
