Abụ Ọma 13

1 Abụ Ọma nke dịrị onyeisi abụ. Abụ ọma Devid. Ruo ole mgbe ka i ga-echefu m Onyenwe anyị? Ruo ole mgbe ka i ga-ezonarị m ihu gị?

For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. How long, O Jehovah? wilt thou forget me for ever? How long wilt thou hide thy face from me?

2 Ruo ole mgbe ka mụ na mmụọ m ga na-agba mgba nọdụkwa na-eru ụjụ kwa ụbọchị nʼime mkpụrụobi m? Ruo ole mgbe ka ndị iro m ga-anọgide na-emeri m?

How long shall I take counsel in my soul, Having sorrow in my heart all the day? How long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?

3 Lekwasị m anya, ma zaa m, O Onyenwe anyị Chineke m. Nyeghachi m ìhè nke anya m ka m ghara ịnwụ;

Consider [and] answer me, O Jehovah my God: Lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the [sleep of] death;

4 mgbe ahụ onye iro m ga-asị, “Emeriela m ya,” mgbe m ga-ada, ndị kpọrọ m asị ga-aṅụrịkwa ọṅụ.

Lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him; [Lest] mine adversaries rejoice when I am moved.

5 Ma atụkwasịrị m obi nʼịhụnanya gị nke na-enweghị ọgwụgwụ; mkpụrụobi m na-aṅụrị ọṅụ na nzọpụta gị.

But I have trusted in thy lovingkindness; My heart shall rejoice in thy salvation.

6 Aga m abụku Onyenwe anyị abụ, nʼihi na o mesoro m mmeso ọma.

I will sing unto Jehovah, Because he hath dealt bountifully with me.
