Psalms 13

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

Dura buʼaa faarfattootaatiif. Faarfannaa Daawit. Yaa Waaqayyo, hamma yoomiitti? Ati hamma bara baraatti na irraanfattaa? Hamma yoomiittis fuula kee na duraa dhoksita?

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?

Ani hamma yoomiittin rakkina obsee guyyaa guutuu garaa koo keessatti gadda? Hamma yoomiitti diinni koo narra aana?

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

Yaa Waaqayyo Waaqa ko, na ilaali; deebii illee naa kenni. Akka ani hirriba duʼaa hin rafneefis ija kootiif ifa kenni;

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

diinni koo, “Ani isa moʼadheera” jedha; amajaajiiwwan koos kufaatii kootti gammadu.

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

Ani garuu araara kee nan amanadha; garaan koos fayyisuu keetti ni gammada.

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

Ani Waaqayyoof nan faarfadha; arjummaan isaa naa baayʼateeraatii.
