Trust in the Salvation of the Lord

To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.
  1How long, O Lord? Will You forget me forever?
   ⚓How long will You hide Your face from me?
    2How long shall I take counsel in my soul,
   Having sorrow in my heart daily?
   How long will my enemy be exalted over me?
   3Consider and hear me, O Lord my God;
   ⚓Enlighten my eyes,
   ⚓Lest I sleep the sleep of death;
    4Lest my enemy say,
   “I have prevailed against him”;
   Lest those who trouble me rejoice when I am moved.
   5But I have trusted in Your mercy;
   My heart shall rejoice in Your salvation.
    6I will sing to the Lord,
   Because He has dealt bountifully with me.
