Psalms 13

1 How long, O Jehovah? Will thou forget me forever? How long will thou hide thy face from me?

Aw Bawipa, handy hly nu? Kai na nim hilh hly loet hawh nawh nu? Handy nu na haai na thuh kaw.

2 How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart all the day? How long shall my enemy be exalted over me?

Handy awh kawpoek ingqawi kqak qu nih nawh myngawi kawseet ing ka awm loet kaw? Handy nu ka qaalkhqi ing kai ami noeng kaw?

3 Consider and answer me, O Jehovah my God. Lighten my eyes, lest I sleep the death,

Aw Bawipa ka Khawsa, ni toek nawhtaw nim hlat lah. Kamik ve dai law sak lah, cek kaa mantaw thihnaak ing ip loet hawh kawng nyng;

4 lest my enemy say, I have prevailed against him, lest my adversaries rejoice when I am moved.

Cawhtaw ka qaalkhqi ing, “Noeng hawh nyng,” ni tina kawm usaw, kang tluk awh ce ka qaalkhqi zeel hawh kawm uh.

5 But I have trusted in thy loving kindness. My heart shall rejoice in thy salvation.

Cehlai, amak dyt thai na lungnaak ce cangna nyng; na hulnaak awh kak kawlung zeel hy.

6 I will sing to Jehovah because he has dealt bountifully with me.

Kak khan awh leek saw, Bawipa venawh laa sa vang nyng.
