A Prayer for Help (PSA 13:1-6)

[13:1] How much longer will you forget me, Lord? Forever? How much longer will you hide yourself from me?

[13:2] How long must I endure trouble? How long will sorrow fill my heart day and night? How long will my enemies triumph over me?

[13:3] Look at me, O Lord my God, and answer me. Restore my strength; don't let me die.

[13:4] Don't let my enemies say, “We have defeated him.” Don't let them gloat over my downfall.

[13:5] I rely on your constant love; I will be glad, because you will rescue me.

[13:6] I will sing to you, O Lord, because you have been good to me.
