Tehillim (Book of Psalms), Chapter 13

'"`UNIQ--named-00000000-QINU`"'¹ For the Leader. A Psalm of David.

'"`UNIQ--named-00000001-QINU`"'² How long, O HaShem, wilt Thou forget me for ever? How long wilt Thou hide Thy face from me?

'"`UNIQ--named-00000002-QINU`"'³ How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart by day? How long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?

'"`UNIQ--named-00000003-QINU`"'⁴ Behold Thou, and answer me, O HaShem my G-d; lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;

'"`UNIQ--named-00000004-QINU`"'⁵ Lest mine enemy say: 'I have prevailed against him'; lest mine adversaries rejoice when I am moved.

'"`UNIQ--named-00000005-QINU`"'⁶ But as for me, in Thy mercy do I trust; my heart shall rejoice in Thy salvation.

'"`UNIQ--named-00000006-QINU`"'⁶ I will sing unto HaShem, because He hath dealt bountifully with me.
