Psalms Chapter 13

These 150 prayers were used by the Hebrews to express their relationship with God. They cover the whole field of human emotions, from joy to hate, from hope to despair.

American King James Version

13 : 1 How long will you forget me, O LORD? for ever? how long will you hide your face from me?

13 : 2 How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart daily? how long shall my enemy be exalted over me?

13 : 3 Consider and hear me, O LORD my God: lighten my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;

13 : 4 Lest my enemy say, I have prevailed against him; and those that trouble me rejoice when I am moved.

13 : 5 But I have trusted in your mercy; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation.

13 : 6 I will sing to the LORD, because he has dealt bountifully with me.
