A psalm written by David for the choir director 
 1 Yahweh, how long will you continue to forget about me? [RHQ] 
Will you hide yourself [SYN] from me forever? 
 2 How long must I endure anguish/worry within myself? 
Must I be miserable/sad every day? 
How long will my enemies continue to defeat me? 
 3 Yahweh my God, look at me and answer me. 
Enable me to become strong again [IDI], and do not allow me to die. 
 4 Do not allow my enemies to boast and to say, “We have defeated him!” 
Do not allow them to defeat me, 
with the result that they will rejoice about it! 
 5 But I trust that you will faithfully love me; 
I will rejoice when you rescue me. 
 6 Yahweh, you have done many good things for me, 
so I will sing to you.
