The problem is that "despair" isn't a verb in Irish, so whatever we do with that is going to have to be more wordy.

Perhaps: Ná bíodh éadóchas ort choíche

Ná caill do mhisneach...lit don't lose heart
Ná caill do mhisneach choíche ... lit don't ever lose your courage

I think this is more exact translation of despair.

SeanMurphy1 wrote:Ná caill do mhisneach choíche

But this is what is likely to be heard in spoken Irish/idiom. - lit. don't lose your courage

I gave my Bible away because the print was so small I couldn't read it.
Sassy is our Bible expert.
With my translations always (without exception) wait for others to confirm or correct.

An Bíobla Naofa renders it differently: Ná bíodh eagla ort (Fear not)
