Psalm 13

Maori Bible

13 Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. He himene na Rawiri. Kia pehea te roa o tou wareware ki ahau, e Ihowa? mo ake tonu atu ranei? Kia pehea te roa o tau hunanga i tou mata ki ahau?

²Kia pehea te roa o toku whakaaroaronga i roto i toku wairua, o te pouri i roto i toku ngakau i tenei ra, i tenei ra? Kia pehea te roa o te whakakake mai a toku hoariri ki ahau?

³Titiro mai, whakahokia mai he kupu ki ahau, e Ihowa, e toku Atua: whakamaramatia oku kanohi, kei moe ahau i te moe o te mate.

⁴Kei mea mai toku hoariri, Kua taea ia e ahau: kei whakamanamana oku hoariri, ina whakakorikoria ahau.

⁵Ko ahau ia e whakawhirinaki ana ki tau mahi toku: ka whakamanamana toku ngakau ki tau whakaoranga.

⁶Ka waiata ahau ki a Ihowa, mona i atawhai mai ki ahau.

Psalm 13

New International Version

Psalm 13^[a]

For the director of music. A psalm of David.

¹How long,^(A) Lord? Will you forget me^(B) forever?
    How long will you hide your face^(C) from me?
²How long must I wrestle with my thoughts^(D)
    and day after day have sorrow in my heart?
    How long will my enemy triumph over me?^(E)

³Look on me^(F) and answer,^(G) Lord my God.
Give light to my eyes,^(H) or I will sleep in death,^(I)
⁴and my enemy will say, “I have overcome him,^(J)”
and my foes will rejoice when I fall.^(K)

⁵But I trust in your unfailing love;^(L)
my heart rejoices in your salvation.^(M)
⁶I will sing^(N) the Lord’s praise,
for he has been good to me.
