"Excuse me" and "bless you"

I know that these phrases would probably be anathema to Klingons, but how
would one say in tlhIngan Hol "excuse me" and "bless you" (when someone
sneezes, of course). For "excuse me", I might say {pIchwIj}, which I 
derived from the English slang "my bad". For "bless you", I have tried
{DaQanlu'jaj} "May you be protected.", but it seems stilted.
