< Psalms 13 >
1 To the Chief Musician. A Melody of David. How long, O Yahweh, wilt thou wholly forget me? How long wilt thou hide thy face from me?
Rabbiyow, ilaa goormaad i illoobaysaa? Ma weligaa baa? Oo ilaa goormaad wejigaaga iga qarinaysaa?
2 How long shall I lay up cares within my soul, sorrow in my heart, day by day? How long shall mine enemy lift himself up over me?
Ilaa goormaan naftayda la tashanayaa, Anigoo maalinta oo dhan calool xun? Ilaa goormuu cadowgaygu iga sarraynayaa?
3 Have regard! answer me O Yahweh my God, —Light up mine eyes, lest I sleep on into death:
Rabbiyow Ilaahayow, waxaas u fiirso, oo ii jawaab, Indhahayga iftiimi, yaanan hurdadii geerida seexanine,
4 Lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed over him! and, mine adversaries, exult, that I totter.
Waaba intaasoo cadowgaygu yidhaahdaa, Anigu isagaan ka adkaaday, Oo ay cadaawayaashaydu farxaan markii lay dhaqaajiyo.
5 But, I, in thy lovingkindness, have put my trust, My heart shall exult in thy salvation:
Laakiinse anigu waxaan isku halleeyey naxariistaada, Oo qalbigayguna wuxuu ku rayrayn doonaa badbaadintaada.
6 I will sing to Yahweh, for he hath dealt beautifully with me.
Rabbigaan u gabyi doonaa, Maxaa yeelay, wax badan oo wanaagsan buu ii sameeyey.
