Psalms 13

1 How long will you forget me, O LORD? for ever? how long will you hide your face from me?

Nkunga Davidi kuidi pfumu minyimbidi. A Yave, nate thangu mbi wela tatamana kunzimbakana mu zithangu zioso e? Nate thangu mbi wela kutsuekilanga zizi kiaku e?

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

Nate thangu mbi ndiela kukinuanisanga mu mayingu mama e? Nate thangu mbi ndiela bela maniongo mu ntimꞌama mu kadika lumbu e? Nate thangu mbi mbeni ama kela ku ndunginanga e?

3 Consider and hear me, O LORD my God: lighten my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;

A Yave, Nzambi ama, wuthadi ayi wuphana mvutu, kienzula meso mama mu diambu ndibika leka tulu tu lufua,

4 Lest my enemy say, I have prevailed against him; and those that trouble me rejoice when I am moved.

mu diambu mbeni ama kabika tuba: “Ndinnungini” ayi muingi batu beti kundenda babika mona khini minu bua.

5 But I have trusted in your mercy; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation.

Vayi minu tsidi diana mu luzolo luaku lungolo. Ntimꞌama wulembo moni khini mu phulusu aku. Ndiela yimbidila Yave bila niandi wuphangidi mamboti.

6 I will sing to the LORD, because he has dealt bountifully with me.
