Psalm 13-14

Young's Literal Translation

13 To the Overseer. -- A Psalm of David. Till when, O Jehovah, Dost Thou forget me? -- for ever? Till when dost Thou hide Thy face from me?

² Till when do I set counsels in my soul? Sorrow inn my heart daily? Till when is mine enemy exalted over me?

³ Look attentively; Answer me, O Jehovah, my God, Enlighten mine eyes, lest I sleep in death,

⁴ Lest mine enemy say, `I overcame him,' Mine adversaries joy when I am moved.

⁵ And I, in Thy kindness I have trusted, Rejoice doth my heart in Thy salvation.

⁶ I do sing to Jehovah, For He hath conferred benefits upon me!

14 To the Overseer. -- By David. A fool hath said in his heart, `God is not;' They have done corruptly, They have done abominable actions, There is not a doer of good.

² Jehovah from the heavens Hath looked on the sons of men, To see if there is a wise one -- seeking God.

³ The whole have turned aside, Together they have been filthy: There is not a doer of good, not even one.

⁴ Have all working iniquity not known? Those consuming my people have eaten bread, Jehovah they have not called.

⁵ There they have feared a fear, For God [is] in the generation of the righteous.

⁶ The counsel of the poor ye cause to stink, Because Jehovah [is] his refuge.

⁷ `Who doth give from Zion the salvation of Israel? When Jehovah doth turn back [To] a captivity of His people, Jacob doth rejoice -- Israel is glad!
