Psalms 129

1 “A song of the degrees.” Many a time have they assailed me from my youth, so should Israel say;

Tan iyo yaraantaydii marar badan bay i dhibeen, Reer binu Israa'iil hadda ha yidhaahdeen,

2 Many a time have they assailed me from my youth: yet have they not prevailed against me.

Tan iyo yaraantaydii marar badan bay i dhibeen, Laakiinse igama ay adkaan.

3 Upon my back have ploughmen ploughed; they have drawn long their furrows:

Kuwa beerta jeexa ayaa dhabarkayga jeexay, Oo jeexjeexoodiina way dheereeyeen.

4 [Yet] the Lord is righteous; he hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked.

Rabbigu waa xaq, Oo isagu wuxuu kala gooyay xadhkihii kuwa sharka leh.

5 May all be put to shame and turned backward that hate Zion;

Inta Siyoon neceb oo dhammu, Ha ceeboobeen oo dib ha u noqdeen.

6 May they become like the grass of the roofs, which withereth before it is pulled up;

Ha noqdeen sida cawska guryaha korkooda ka baxa Oo engega intaanu korin,

7 Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand; nor his arm he that bindeth sheaves.

Oo aan beergooyuhu gacantiisa ka buuxin, Kan xidhmooyinka xidhaana aanu laabtiisa ka buuxin.

8 Nor do they who pass by say, The blessing of the Lord be with you: we bless you in the name of the Lord.

Oo kuwa ag maraana ma yidhaahdaan, Barakadii Rabbigu korkiinna ha ahaato. Waxaan idiinku ducaynaynaa magaca Rabbiga.
