The grace and mercy of God.

¹⁾How long, O Lord, wilt thou forgetwithdraw thyself from me, O LORD? for ever? howHow long wilt thou hide thy face from me, that I may not see thee? Wilt thou forget me, and cast me off from thy presence forever?

²⁾How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrowsorrowing in my heart daily? howHow long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?

³⁾Consider and hear me, O LORDLord; and hear my cry, O my God:; and lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the sleepdeath of deaththe ungodly; 4)Lest lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him; and those.

⁴⁾Those that trouble me, rejoice when I am moved.;

⁵⁾But I have trusted in thy mercy;, my heart shall rejoice in thy salvation.

⁶⁾I will sing unto the LORDLord, because he hath dealt bountifully with me.
