< Psalms 49 >

1 To the Chief Musician. For the Sons of Korah. A Melody. Hear ye, this all ye peoples, Give ear, all ye inhabitants of this passing world;
Don mai bi da kaɗe-kaɗe. Na’ya’yan Kora maza. Zabura ce. Ku ji wannan, dukanku mutane; ku saurara, dukanku waɗanda suke zama a wannan duniya,
2 Both sons of the low, And sons of the high, —Together both rich and needy: —
babba da yaro mai arziki da talaka.
3 My mouth, shall speak forth Wisdom, And the soft utterance of my heart be Understanding:
Bakina zai yi maganar hikima; magana daga zuciyata za tă ba da ganewa.
4 I will bend, to a by-word, mine ear, I will open, on the lyre, mine enigma.
Zan juye kunnena ga karin magana; da garaya zan ƙarfafa kacici-kacicina.
5 Wherefore should I fear in the days of calamity, Though the iniquity of them who lie in wait for me should enclose me?
Don me zan ji tsoro sa’ad da mugayen kwanaki suka zo, sa’ad da mugaye masu ruɗu suka kewaye ni,
6 As for them who are trusting in their wealth, —And, in the abundance of their riches, do boast themselves,
waɗanda suka dogara ga arzikinsu suna kuma fariya a kan yawan arzikinsu?
7 A brother, can none of them, redeem, he cannot give unto God a ransom for himself:
Ba wani da zai iya ceton ran wani ko yă ba wa Allah kuɗin fansa saboda shi,
8 So costly, is the redemption of their soul, That it faileth unto times age-abiding;
kuɗin fansa domin rai yana da tsada, babu abin da za a biya da ya taɓa isa,
9 That he should, yet, live on, continually, Should not see corruption.
da zai sa yă ci gaba da rayuwa har abada yă hana shi shigan kabari yă ruɓa.
10 For it is seen that, the wise, die, Together with the dullard, and the brutish, do they perish, And leave, to others, their wealth:
Gama kowa na iya ganin masu hikima na mutuwa; wawaye da marasa azanci su ma kan hallaka su bar wa waɗansu arzikinsu.
11 Their, inward thought, is that their houses are for times age-abiding, Their habitations, for generation after generation, —They give their own names unto lands!
Kaburburansu za su ci gaba da zama gidajensu har abada, Can za su kasance har zamanai marasa ƙarewa, ko da yake sun ba wa filaye sunayen kansu.
12 But, a son of earth, though wealthy, cannot tarry, He hath made himself a by-word—Beasts, they resemble:
Amma mutum, kome arzikinsa, ba ya dawwama; shi kamar dabbobi ne da suke mutuwa.
13 This, their way, is a folly to them, And yet, their followers, with their mouth, approve. (Selah)
Wannan ne ƙaddarar waɗanda suke dogara a kansu, da kuma ta mabiyansu, waɗanda suka tabbatar da faɗinsu. (Sela)
14 Like sheep—into hades, are they driven, Death shall shepherd them, —And the upright shall have dominion over them in the morning, Even their form, is to decay, Hades, is all that remaineth of a habitation for him. (Sheol h7585)
Kamar tumaki an ƙaddara su ga kabari; za su kuwa zama abincin mutuwa amma masu gaskiya za su yi mulki a kansu da safe. Kamanninsu za su ruɓe a cikin kabari, nesa da gidajensu masu tsada. (Sheol h7585)
15 But, God, will redeem my soul, out of the hand of hades, For he will take me. (Selah) (Sheol h7585)
Amma Allah zai ceci raina daga kabari; tabbatacce zai ɗauke ni zuwa wurinsa. (Sela) (Sheol h7585)
16 Do not fear, When a man becometh rich, When the glory of his house increaseth;
Kada ka razana da yawa sa’ad da mutum ya yi arziki sa’ad da darajar gidansa ta ƙaru;
17 For, when he dieth, he shall take, nothing, his glory shall not descend after him;
gama ba zai ɗauki kome tare da shi sa’ad da ya mutu ba, darajarsa ba za tă gangara tare da shi ba.
18 For, though, his own self—while he lived, he used to bless, And they will praise thee, when thou doest well to thyself,
Ko da yake yayinda yake a raye ya ɗauka kansa mai albarka ne, mutane kuma sun yabe ka sa’ad da kake cin nasara,
19 He shall enter as far as the circle of his fathers, Nevermore, shall they see the light.
zai gamu da tsarar kakanninsa, waɗanda ba za su taɓa ganin hasken rayuwa ba.
20 A son of earth though wealthy, who discerneth not, Hath made himself a by-word, Beasts, they resemble.
Mutumin da yake da arziki ba tare da ganewa ba shi kamar dabbobi ne da suke mutuwa.
