How long, Lord, will you forget me utterly? How long will you turn your face away from me?
τίνος θήσομαι βουλὰς ἐν ψυχῇ μου ὀδύνας ἐν καρδίᾳ μου ἡμέρας ἕως πότε ὑψωθήσεται ὁ ἐχθρός μου ἐπ᾿ ἐμέ
How long shall I put counsels in my soul, sorrows in my heart, by day? How long shall my enemy be exalted over me?
Look upon me, hear me, O Lord my God; enlighten my eyes, lest I sleep unto death.
Lest my enemy should say, I have prevailed against him; those afflicting me will rejoice if I should be shaken.
δὲ ἐπὶ τῷ ἐλέει σου ἤλπισα ἀγαλλιάσεται ἡ καρδία μου ἐπὶ τῷ σωτηρίῳ σου ᾄσω τῷ κυρίῳ τῷ εὐεργετήσαντί με καὶ ψαλῶ τῷ ὀνόματι κυρίου τοῦ ὑψίστου
But I have hoped in your mercy; my heart will rejoice in your salvation; I will sing to the Lord, who has dealt bountifully with me, and I will sing praise to the name of the Lord the Most High
