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 by David. How long, Yahweh? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your 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 every day? How long shall my enemy triumph over me?

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

Behold, and answer me, Yahweh, my God. Give light to my eyes, lest I sleep in death;

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

lest my enemy say, “I have prevailed against him;” lest my adversaries rejoice when I fall.

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

But I trust in your loving kindness. My heart rejoices in your salvation.

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

I will sing to Yahweh, because he has been good to me.
