"How long, O LORD, will this last? Will you remain hidden forever? Will your anger continue to burn like fire?"
— Psalms 89:46, NET Bible®
You turn back his sword from the adversary, and have not sustained him in battle.
You have brought to an end his splendor, and have knocked his throne to the ground.
You have cut short his youth, and have covered him with shame.(Selah)
How long, O LORD, will this last? Will you remain hidden forever? Will your anger continue to burn like fire?
Take note of my brief lifespan! Why do you make all people so mortal?
No man can live on without experiencing death, or deliver his life from the power of Sheol.(Selah)
Where are your earlier faithful deeds, O Lord, the ones performed in accordance with your reliable oath to David?
