Psalms 13

1 To the Overseer. — A Psalm of David. Till when, O Jehovah, Dost Thou forget me? — for ever? Till when dost Thou hide Thy face from me?

Thaburi ya Daudi Nĩ nginya rĩ, Wee Jehova? Ũgũtũũra ũriganĩirwo nĩ niĩ nginya tene? Nĩ nginya rĩ ũgũtũũra ũũhithĩte ũthiũ waku?

2 Till when do I set counsels in my soul? Sorrow in my heart daily? Till when is mine enemy exalted over me?

Nĩ nginya rĩ ngũtũũra ngianaga na meciiria makwa, na o mũthenya ngoragwo na ihooru ngoro-inĩ yakwa? Nĩ nginya rĩ thũ yakwa ĩgũtũũra ĩĩhootaga?

3 Look attentively; Answer me, O Jehovah, my God, Enlighten mine eyes, lest I sleep in death,

Wee Jehova, Ngai wakwa, ndora na ũnjookerie ũhoro. Tũma maitho makwa mone, nĩguo ndikae gũkoma toro wa gĩkuũ;

4 Lest mine enemy say, 'I overcame him,' Mine adversaries joy when I am moved.

nĩguo thũ yakwa ndĩkoige atĩrĩ, “Nĩndĩmũhootete,” nao arĩa marĩ muku na niĩ magĩkenere kũgũa gwakwa.

5 And I, in Thy kindness I have trusted, Rejoice doth my heart in Thy salvation.

No niĩ ndĩhokete wendo waku ũrĩa ũtathiraga; ngoro yakwa ĩkenagĩra ũhonokio waku.

6 I do sing to Jehovah, For He hath conferred benefits upon me!

Nĩngũinĩra Jehova, nĩgũkorwo nĩanjĩkĩte wega mũno.
