Steinsaltz on Psalms 13

Home

Writings

13 ‎[1] **For the chief musician, a psalm by David. **

‎[2] **How long, Lord? Will You forget me forever? How long will You hide Your face from me? **

‎[3] **How long must I devise plans **to escape the clutches of the wicked?** **I seem to be unable to find the right way out. How long must I **have sorrow in my heart **that overwhelms me **all day?** My very existence is devoid of joy; all my thoughts are full of gloom. **For how long will my enemies tower over me? **

‎[4] **Look and answer me, Lord my God; bring light to my eyes **to help me find the path to salvation, **lest** **I will sleep in **the eternal sleep of **death, **

‎[5] **lest my enemy say: I have overcome him, **and **lest my foes rejoice when I stumble. **

‎[6] **But **still** I trust in Your kindness, **my only solace. **My heart rejoices in **anticipation of **Your salvation. I sing to the Lord, for He has dealt kindly with me*****.***
