Thaburi 13

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

6 Nĩngũinĩra Jehova, nĩgũkorwo nĩanjĩkĩte wega mũno.

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