< Psalms 13 >
1 For the music director. A psalm of David. How long, Lord, are you going to forget me? Forever? How long will you turn away from me?
MAIN arai da kom pan kotin malie ia la? Arai da komui pan kotin karirila jilan omui mo i?
2 How long must I be in inner turmoil, feeling sad all day long? How long will my enemy be victorious over me?
Arai da i en perki nan lol ai o jalo mi nan monion i ran karoj? Arai da ai imwintiti en kaurur kin ia?
3 Think about this, and answer me, Lord my God. Give me back my strength, otherwise I'm going to die,
Main ai Kot, kom kotin majan don ia o japen ia. Kom kotin kamaraini maj ai, pwe i ender mela.
4 and my enemy will say, “I defeated him!” and my opponents will celebrate my downfall.
Pwe ai imwintiti ender inda: I kaloedier i. O me palian ia ender perenki ai pupedier.
5 But I trust in your never-failing love, I will be happy because you save me.
A i kin liki omui kalanan; monion i en peren kida omui kotin jauaja ia. I pan kauleki Ieowa duen a kotin wiawia mau on ia.
6 I will sing to the Lord because he has treated me with such generosity!
