1 H ow long will You forget me, O Lord? Forever? How long will You hide Your face from me?

Rabbiyow, ilaa goormaad i illoobaysaa? Ma weligaa baa? Oo ilaa goormaad wejigaaga iga qarinaysaa?

2 H ow long must I lay up cares within me and have sorrow in my heart day after day? How long shall my enemy exalt himself over me?

Ilaa goormaan naftayda la tashanayaa, Anigoo maalinta oo dhan calool xun? Ilaa goormuu cadowgaygu iga sarraynayaa?

3 C onsider and answer me, O Lord my God; lighten the eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death,

Rabbiyow Ilaahayow, waxaas u fiirso, oo ii jawaab, Indhahayga iftiimi, yaanan hurdadii geerida seexanine,

4 L est my enemy say, I have prevailed over him, and those that trouble me rejoice when I am shaken.

Waaba intaasoo cadowgaygu yidhaahdaa, Anigu isagaan ka adkaaday, Oo ay cadaawayaashaydu farxaan markii lay dhaqaajiyo.

5 B ut I have trusted, leaned on, and been confident in Your mercy and loving-kindness; my heart shall rejoice and be in high spirits in Your salvation.

Laakiinse anigu waxaan isku halleeyey naxariistaada, Oo qalbigayguna wuxuu ku rayrayn doonaa badbaadintaada.

6 I will sing to the Lord, because He has dealt bountifully with me.

Rabbigaan u gabyi doonaa, Maxaa yeelay, wax badan oo wanaagsan buu ii sameeyey.
