Psalms 12

1How long, O Lord, will you forget me? for ever? how long will you turn away your face from me? 1

2How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrows in my heart daily? how long shall my enemy be exalted over me? 1

3Look on me, listen to me, O Lord my God: lighten my eyes, lest I sleep in death; 1

4lest at any time my enemy say, I have prevailed against him: my persecutors will exult if ever I should be moved. 1

5But I have hoped in your mercy; my heart shall exult in your salvation. 1

6I will sing to the Lord who has dealt bountifully with me, and I will sing psalms to the name of the Lord most high.
