Afflictions » Life tested by the lord » Sometimes prolonged
And You, Lord—how long?
For the choir director. A Davidic psalm.Lord, how long will You forget me?
Forever?
How long will You hide Your face from me?
Forever?
How long will You hide Your face from me?
Rescue my life from their ravages,
my only one from the young lions.
Will Your jealousy keep burning like fire?
Will Your anger keep burning like fire?
and You do not listen
or cry out to You about violence
and You do not save?
Then the Angel of the Lord responded, “How long, Lord of Hosts, will You withhold mercy from Jerusalem and the cities of Judah that You have been angry with these 70 years?”
