Psalms
The Psalter is Israel’s hymnbook: lament, praise, thanksgiving, royal psalms, and wisdom. It trains the heart to speak to God in trouble and in joy, and it points ahead to the Messiah.
Young's Literal Translation
Psalms 13
1To the Overseer. --A Psalm of David. Till when, O Jehovah, Dost Thou forget me? --for ever? Till when dost Thou hide Thy face from me? 2Till when do I set counsels in my soul? Sorrow in my heart daily? Till when is mine enemy exalted over me? 3Look attentively; Answer me, O Jehovah, my God, Enlighten mine eyes, lest I sleep in death, 4Lest mine enemy say, `I overcame him,' Mine adversaries joy when I am moved. 5And I, in Thy kindness I have trusted, Rejoice doth my heart in Thy salvation. 6I do sing to Jehovah, For He hath conferred benefits upon me!
