Psalms 13

1 Unto the end, a psalm for David. How long, O Lord, wilt thou forget me unto the end? how long dost thou turn away thy face from me?

Aka mawt ham David kah Tingtoenglung Aw BOEIPA, mevaeng hil nim kai nan hnilh yoeyah ve? Mevaeng hil nim na maelhmai te kai taeng lamkah na thuh ve?

2 How long shall I take counsels in my soul, sorrow in my heart all the day?

Mevaeng hil nim ka thinko kah hnin takuem kothae la ka hinglu he cilsuep ka dul hawl ve? Mevaeng hil nim kai sokah ka thunkha loh caemthang a rhuk ve?

3 How long shall my enemy be exalted over me?

Aw ka BOEIPA Pathen paelki lamtah kai he n'doo dae. Ka mik mah han tueng sak dueknah khuila ka ip ve.

4 Consider, and hear me, O Lord my God. Enlighten my eyes that I never sleep in death:

Ka thunkha loh, “Anih ka na coeng,” a ti vetih ka bung vaengah ka rhal rhoek te omngaih uh ve.

5 Lest at any time my enemy say: I have prevailed against him. They that trouble me will rejoice when I am moved:

Tedae kai tah nang kah sitlohnah dongah ka pangtung tih namah kah khangnah dongah ka lungbuei omngaih.

6 But I have trusted in thy mercy. My heart shall rejoice in thy salvation: I will sing to the Lord, who giveth me good things: yea I will sing to the name of the Lord the most high.

BOEIPA te kai ham a then dongah ka hlai ni.
