Psalm 13

Psalm 13 in the World English Bible (WEB), a public domain modern English update of the American Standard Version of 1901. It gives God's personal name as "Yahweh" 3 times in this chapter, where the Berean Standard Bible prints LORD.

1

For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. How long, Yahweh? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?

2

How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart every day? How long shall my enemy triumph over me?

3

Behold, and answer me, Yahweh, my God. Give light to my eyes, lest I sleep in death;

4

lest my enemy say, “I have prevailed against him;” lest my adversaries rejoice when I fall.

5

But I trust in your loving kindness. My heart rejoices in your salvation.

6

I will sing to Yahweh, because he has been good to me.
