Psalm 13

Assyrian Aid Society of Iraq reported on Aug 6, 2014, speaking of the Christian refugees hiding in the mountains of Iraq, fleeing ISIS

Yesterday 45 children died of thirst. Some families throw their children from the top of Sinjar mountain in order not to see them die from hunger or thirst, or not to be taken by the terrorists.

1. How long, O Lord? Will You forget them forever? How long will You hide your face from them?

2. How long shall they take counsel in their souls, having sorrow in their hearts daily? How long will their enemies be exalted over them?

3. Consider and hear them, O Lord my God; enlighten their eyes, lest they sleep the sleep of death;

4. lest their enemies say, "Allah has prevailed against Jehovah"; lest those who trouble them rejoice when they are moved.

5. Let them trust in Your mercy, let them rejoice in your salvation.

6. Let them sing to the Lord because He has dealt bountifully with them.

Hosannah! Save now!

Hosannah in the highest!
