What Psalms does with prayer and honest petition is best seen by reading the whole chapter rather than the single line.
‘May the LORD bless you and keep you; may the LORD cause His face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; may the LORD lift up His countenance toward you and give you peace.’
This verse in Isaiah reminds us that asking, seeking and waiting is rooted in God's promise.
