Klingon to English - You are welcome

I would like to find a phrase that would be used after helping someone in an endeavor. It doesn't have to be 'you are welcome' exactly but something along those lines.
Any help would be appreciated.

The standard answer to
qatlho'
{"Thank you."} appears to be
qay'be'
{"It's not a problem."}
...unless, of course, it
was
a problem, in which case I'm guessing a Klingon would acknowledge the thanks by responding something like
jIyaj[/i] {"I understand."} or
maj
{"Good!"}.

Thank you for your help it is greatly appreciated.
I needed the phrase to be something longer when translated. If you would be so kind as to translate something else. Something along the lines of
'It's not a problem, my dearest friend' or 'kindred spirit'

qay'be', wIj jup
qay'
be a problem
-be'
not
wIj
my
jup
friend
NOTE: "my friend" would normally be
jupwI
', but Marc Okrand took the stupid phrase
wIj jup
written by some Paramount writer who just looked up the words in the Klingon Dictionary but didn't know how to combine them, and "canonized" it to mean "my dear friend/my bosom buddy", etc.
