O Lord, how long will the wicked, how long will the wicked celebrate?

Take notice of this, you ignorant people! You fools, when will you ever understand?

When they were few in number, just a very few, and resident aliens within it,

My eyes grow tired as I wait for your promise to be fulfilled. I say, “When will you comfort me?”

He says, “How long will you make unjust legal decisions and show favoritism to the wicked? (Selah)

Turn back toward us, O Lord! How long must this suffering last? Have pity on your servants!

How long must your servant endure this? When will you judge those who pursue me?

I am absolutely terrified, and you, Lord – how long will this continue?

I do not associate with deceitful men, or consort with those who are dishonest.

My enemies ask this cruel question about me, ‘When will he finally die and be forgotten?’

I thirst for God, for the living God. I say, “When will I be able to go and appear in God’s presence?”

How long, O God, will the adversary hurl insults? Will the enemy blaspheme your name forever?

O Lord God, invincible warrior! How long will you remain angry at your people while they pray to you?

I will walk in the way of integrity. When will you come to me? I will conduct my business with integrity in the midst of my palace.
