Psalm 13

Hoffnung für alle

Wie lange noch, Herr?

1 Ein Lied von David. 

2 HERR, wie lange wirst du mich noch vergessen, wie lange hältst du dich vor mir verborgen? 

3 Wie lange noch sollen Sorgen mich quälen, wie lange soll der Kummer Tag für Tag an mir nagen? Wie lange noch wird mein Feind über mir stehen? 

4 HERR, mein Gott, wende dich mir zu und antworte mir! Lass mich wieder froh werden und neuen Mut gewinnen, sonst bin ich dem Tod geweiht. 

5 Mein Feind würde triumphieren und sagen: »Den habe ich zur Strecke gebracht!« Meine Gegner würden jubeln über meinen Untergang. 

6 Ich aber vertraue auf deine Liebe und juble darüber, dass du mich retten wirst. Mit meinem Lied will ich dich loben, denn du, HERR, hast mir Gutes getan.

Psalm 13

English Standard Version

How Long, O Lord?

1 To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. How long, O Lord? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me? (Hi 13,24; Ps 10,12; Ps 44,24; Ps 74,19; Ps 74,23; Ps 79,5; Ps 89,46; Kla 5,20; Offb 6,10) 

2 How long must I take counsel in my soul and have sorrow in my heart all the day? How long shall my enemy be exalted over me? (Ps 77,6) 

3 Consider and answer me, O Lord my God; light up my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death, (1Sam 14,27; Esr 9,8; Ps 5,1; Ps 19,8; Ps 119,153; Spr 29,13; Jer 51,39; Eph 1,18) 

4 lest my enemy say, “I have prevailed over him,” lest my foes rejoice because I am shaken. (5Mo 32,27; Ps 10,6) 

5 But I have trusted in your steadfast love; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation. (Ps 9,14; Ps 11,1) 

6 I will sing to the Lord, because he has dealt bountifully with me.
