Psalms 13

1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. How long, O Jehovah? wilt thou forget me for ever? How long wilt thou hide thy face from me?

[Psalm lal David] LEUM GOD, kom ac mulkinyula putaka? Ya kom ac mulkinyula ma pahtpat? Kom ac wikinkomla likiyu nwe ngac?

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

Putaka nga ac muteng mwe keok nu sik? Ac putaka insiuk ac toasrkin ma inge ke len ac fong? Putaka mwet lokoalok luk ac kutangyula?

3 Consider [and] answer me, O Jehovah my God: Lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the [sleep of] death;

Ngetma nu sik, O LEUM GOD luk, ac topukyu. Folokonak ku luk, ac tia lela nga in misa.

4 Lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him; [Lest] mine adversaries rejoice when I am moved.

Nikmet lela tuh mwet lokoalok luk in fahk, “Kut kutangulla.” Nikmet lela elos in isrunyu ke munasla luk.

5 But I have trusted in thy lovingkindness; My heart shall rejoice in thy salvation.

Nga lulalfongi na lungse pwaye lom; Nga ac fah insewowo mweyen kom ac fah moliyula.

6 I will sing unto Jehovah, Because he hath dealt bountifully with me.

Nga ac fah on nu sum, O LEUM GOD, Mweyen kom nuna wo nu sik.
