Psalm 13

1 [Psalm lal David] LEUM GOD, kom ac mulkinyula putaka? Ya kom ac mulkinyula ma pahtpat? Kom ac wikinkomla likiyu nwe ngac?

TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID. Until when, O YHWH, Do You forget me forever? Until when do You hide Your face from me?

2 Putaka nga ac muteng mwe keok nu sik? Ac putaka insiuk ac toasrkin ma inge ke len ac fong? Putaka mwet lokoalok luk ac kutangyula?

Until when do I set counsels in my soul, [With] sorrow in my heart daily? Until when is my enemy exalted over me?

3 Ngetma nu sik, O LEUM GOD luk, ac topukyu. Folokonak ku luk, ac tia lela nga in misa.

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

4 Nikmet lela tuh mwet lokoalok luk in fahk, “Kut kutangulla.” Nikmet lela elos in isrunyu ke munasla luk.

Lest my enemy say, “I overcame him,” My adversaries rejoice when I am moved.

5 Nga lulalfongi na lungse pwaye lom; Nga ac fah insewowo mweyen kom ac fah moliyula.

And I have trusted in Your kindness, My heart rejoices in Your salvation.

6 Nga ac fah on nu sum, O LEUM GOD, Mweyen kom nuna wo nu sik.

I sing to YHWH, For He has conferred benefits on me!
