< Psalms 115 >

1 Yahweh, people should praise [only] you [MTY]; they must praise you, not us, because you faithfully love us and always do what you have promised to do.
Ba gare mu ba, ya Ubangiji, ba gare mu ba amma ga sunanka yă sami ɗaukaka, saboda ƙaunarka da amincinka.
2 It is not right that [RHQ] [other] people-groups should say about us, “[They claim that] their God [is very powerful], but [if that is true], why does he not [help them]?”
Me ya sa al’ummai suke cewa, “Ina Allahnsu?”
3 Our God is in heaven, and he does whatever he wants to!
Allahnmu yana a sama; yana yin duk abin da ya ga dama.
4 [But] their idols are only [statues made of] silver and gold, things that humans have made.
Amma gumakansu azurfa da zinariya ne, da hannuwan mutane suka yi.
5 Their idols have mouths, but they cannot say [anything]; they have eyes, but they cannot see [anything].
Suna da bakuna, amma ba sa magana, idanu, amma ba sa gani;
6 They have ears, but they cannot hear [anything]; they have noses, but they cannot smell [anything].
suna da kunnuwa, amma ba sa ji, hanci, amma ba sa jin ƙanshi
7 They have hands, but they cannot feel [anything]; they have feet, but they cannot walk, and they have throats but cannot [even] make any sounds!
suna da hannuwa, amma ba sa iya taɓa kome, ƙafafu, amma ba sa iya tafiya; ba sa iya ce wani abu da maƙogwaronsu.
8 The people who make those idols are [as powerless] as those idols, and those who trust in those idols [can accomplish nothing], just like their idols!
Masu yinsu za su zama kamar su, haka kuma zai kasance da duk wanda ya dogara da su.
9 You, [my fellow] Israeli people, trust in Yahweh! He is the one who helps you and [protects you like] [MET] a shield.
Ya gidan Isra’ila, ku dogara ga Ubangiji, shi ne mai taimakonsu da garkuwarsu.
10 You priests [MTY], trust in Yahweh! He is the one who helps you and [protects you like] [MET] a shield.
Ya gidan Haruna, ku dogara ga Ubangiji, shi ne mai taimakonsu da garkuwarsu.
11 [All] you who revere Yahweh, trust in him! He is the one who helps you and [protects you like] [MET] a shield.
Ku da kuke tsoronsa, ku dogara ga Ubangiji, shi ne mai taimakonsu da garkuwarsu.
12 Yahweh has not forgotten us; he will bless us Israeli people [MTY]! He will bless the priests,
Ubangiji yakan tuna da mu zai kuma albarkace mu. Zai albarkace gidan Isra’ila, zai albarkace gidan Haruna,
13 and he will bless [all] those who revere him; he will bless important [people] and people [who are considered to be] unimportant, [everyone!]
zai albarkace waɗanda suke tsoron Ubangiji, manya da ƙanana duka.
14 I desire that Yahweh will give many children to you [my fellow-Israeli people], and to your descendants.
Bari Ubangiji yă sa ku ƙaru, da ku da’ya’yanku.
15 I desire that Yahweh, the one who made heaven and the earth, will bless [all of] you!
Bari Ubangiji yă albarkace ku, shi Mahalicci sama da ƙasa.
16 The [highest] heavens belong to Yahweh, but he gave [everything that is on] the earth to [us] people.
Saman sammai na Ubangiji ne, amma ya ba da duniya ga mutum.
17 Dead [people] are not [able to] praise Yahweh; when they descend into the place where dead people are, they are unable to speak and cannot praise him.
Ba matattu ba ne masu yabon Ubangiji, waɗanda suke gangara zuwa wurin da ake shiru;
18 But we [who are alive] will thank/praise him, now and forever. Praise Yahweh!
mu ne masu ɗaukaka Ubangiji, yanzu da har abada kuma. Yabi Ubangiji.
