Ee Bwana, hata lini utanisahau, hata milele? Hata lini utanificha uso wako?
For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. How long, O LORD? Will You forget me forever? How long will You hide Your face from me?
2
Hata lini nifanye mashauri nafsini mwangu, Nikihuzunika moyoni mchana kutwa? Hata lini adui yangu atukuke juu yangu?
How long must I wrestle in my soul, with sorrow in my heart each day? How long will my enemy dominate me?
3
Ee Bwana, Mungu wangu, uangalie, uniitikie; Uyatie nuru macho yangu, Nisije nikalala usingizi wa mauti.
Consider me and respond, O LORD my God. Give light to my eyes, lest I sleep in death,
4
Adui yangu asije akasema, Nimemshinda; Watesi wangu wasifurahi ninapoondoshwa.
lest my enemy say, “I have overcome him,” and my foes rejoice when I fall.
5
Nami nimezitumainia fadhili zako; Moyo wangu na uufurahie wokovu wako.
But I have trusted in Your loving devotion; my heart will rejoice in Your salvation.
6
Naam, nimwimbie Bwana, Kwa kuwa amenitendea kwa ukarimu.
I will sing to the LORD, for He has been good to me.
