Psalms 140
1 For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. Rescue me, O LORD, from evil men. Protect me from men of violence,
Don mai bi da kaɗe-kaɗe. Zabura ta Dawuda. Ka cece ni, ya Ubangiji, daga mugaye; ka tsare ni daga mutane masu rikici,
2 who devise evil in their hearts and stir up war all day long.
masu shirya maƙarƙashiya a zukatansu suna kuma kawo yaƙi kullum.
3 They sharpen their tongues like snakes; the venom of vipers is on their lips.
Suna sa harsunansu su yi kaifi kamar na maciji; dafin gamsheƙa yana a leɓunansu. (Sela)
4 Guard me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked. Keep me safe from men of violence who scheme to make me stumble.
Ka kiyaye ni, ya Ubangiji, daga hannuwan mugaye; ka tsare ni daga mutane masu rikici waɗanda suke shirin kwashe ni a ƙafafu.
5 The proud hide a snare for me; the cords of their net are spread along the path, and lures are set out for me.
Masu girman kai sun sa mini tarko; sun shimfiɗa igiyoyin ragarsu sun kuma shirya mini tarko a hanyata. (Sela)
6 I say to the LORD, “You are my God.” Hear, O LORD, my cry for help.
Ya Ubangiji, na ce maka, “Kai ne Allahna.” Ka ji kukata ta neman jinƙai, ya Ubangiji.
7 O GOD the Lord, the strength of my salvation, You shield my head in the day of battle.
Ya Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka, mai fansana mai ƙarfi, wanda yake garkuwoyin kaina a ranar yaƙi.
8 Grant not, O LORD, the desires of the wicked; do not promote their evil plans, lest they be exalted.
Kada ka biya wa mugaye bukatunsu, ya Ubangiji; kada ka bar shirinsu su yi nasara, in ba haka ba za su yi fariya. (Sela)
9 May the heads of those who surround me be covered in the trouble their lips have caused.
Bari kawunan waɗanda suka kewaye ni su rufu da masifun da leɓunansu suka jawo.
10 May burning coals fall on them; may they be thrown into the fire, into the miry pits, never to rise again.
Bari garwashin wuta yă zubo a kansu; bari a jefar da su cikin wuta, cikin rami mai zurfi, kada su sāke tashi.
11 May no slanderer be established in the land; may calamity hunt down the man of violence.
Kada masu ɓata suna su taɓa kahu a ƙasar; bari masifa ta farauci mutane masu rikici.
12 I know that the LORD upholds justice for the poor and defends the cause of the needy.
Na san cewa Ubangiji ya shirya wa matalauta adalci yana kuma yi wa mabukata adalci.
13 Surely the righteous will praise Your name; the upright will dwell in Your presence.
Tabbatacce masu adalci za su yabi sunanka masu aikata gaskiya kuma za su zauna a gabanka.
