< Psalms 13 >

1 How long will you forget me, O LORD? for ever? how long will you hide your face from me?
Mpaka lini, Yahweh, utaendelea kunisahau? Ni kwa muda gani utauficha uso wako nisiuone?
2 How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart daily? how long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?
Ni kwa muda gani nitalazimika kuhofu na kuhuzunika moyoni mwangu kila siku? Ni kwa muda gani adui zangu watanishida?
3 Consider and hear me, O LORD my God: lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;
Unitazame na unijibu, Yahwe Mungu wangu! Nipe mwanga machoni pangu, vinginevyo nitalala katika mauti.
4 Lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him; and those that trouble me rejoice when I am moved.
Usimuache adui yangu aseme, “Nimemshinda huyu,” ili kwamba asiweze kusema, “Nimemtawala adui yangu;” la sivyo, maadui zangu watafurahia nitakapo shushwa chini.
5 But I have trusted in your mercy; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation.
Lakini nimeamini katika uaminifu wa agano lako; moyo wangu wafurahia katika wokovu wako.
6 I will sing unto the LORD, because he has dealt bountifully with me.
Nitamuimbia Yahwe kwa kuwa ameniganga kwa ukarimu kabisa.
