Psalms 71
1 Yahweh, I have come to you to (get refuge/be protected); never allow me to become ashamed [because of being defeated].
A gare ka, ya Ubangiji, na nemi mafaka; kada ka taɓa sa in sha kunya.
2 Because you always do what is right, help me and rescue me; listen to me, and save me!
Ka kuɓutar da ni ka cece ni cikin adalcinka; ka juya kunnenka gare ni ka kuma cece ni.
3 Be [like an overhanging] rock [MET] under which I [can be] safe/protected; [be like] a strong fortress in which I am safe [DOU]. You [continually] command (OR, [Continually] command) [your angels] to rescue me.
Ka zama dutsena da kagarata, inda kullum zan je. Ka ba da umarni a cece ni, gama kai ne dutsen ɓuyana da katangata.
4 God, rescue me from wicked [people], from the power of unjust and evil men.
Ka cece ni, ya Allahna, daga hannun mugaye, da kuma daga ikon mugaye da masu mugunta.
5 Yahweh, my Lord, you are the one whom I confidently expect [to help me]; I have trusted in you since I was young.
Gama kai ne abin sa zuciyata, ya Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka, ƙarfin zuciyata tun ina yaro.
6 I have depended on you all my life; you have taken care of me [IDM] since the day that I was born, [so] I will always praise you.
Daga haihuwa na dogara gare ka; kai ka kawo ni daga cikin mahaifiyata. Kullayaumi zan yabe ka.
7 The manner in which I have conducted my life has been an example to many [people], because [they realize that] you have been my strong defender.
Na zama kamar abin sa zuciya ga yawanci, amma kai ne katangata mai ƙarfi.
8 I praise you all day long, and I proclaim that you are glorious/wonderful.
Bakina ya cika da yabonka, ina furta darajarka dukan yini.
9 Now, when I have become an old man, do not reject/abandon me; do not abandon me now, when I am not strong any more.
Kada ka yar da ni sa’ad da na tsufa; kada ka yashe ni sa’ad da ƙarfina ya ƙare.
10 My enemies say [that they want to kill] me; they plan together [how they can do that].
Gama abokan gābana suna magana a kaina; waɗanda suke jira su kashe ni suna haɗa baki tare.
11 They say [about me], “God has abandoned him; so now we can pursue him and seize him, because there is no one who will rescue him.”
Suna cewa, “Allah ya yashe shi; mu fafare shi mu kama shi, gama ba wanda zai kuɓutar da shi.”
12 God, do not stay far away from me; hurry to help me!
Kada ka yi nisa da ni, ya Allah; zo da sauri, ya Allahna, ka taimake ni.
13 Cause those who (accuse me/say that I have done things that are wrong) to be defeated and destroyed; cause those who want to harm me to be shamed and disgraced.
Bari masu zagina su hallaka da kunya; bari waɗanda suke so su cutar da ni su sha ba’a da kuma kunya.
14 But [as for me], I will continually and confidently expect [you to do great things for me], and I will praise you more and more.
Amma game da ni, kullayaumi zan kasance da sa zuciya; zan yabe ka sau da sau.
15 I will tell people that you do what is right; all day long I will tell people how you have saved me, although what you have done is more than I can fully understand.
Bakina zai ba da labarin adalcinka, zai yi maganar cetonka dukan yini, ko da yake ban san yawansa ba.
16 Yahweh, my Lord, I will praise you for your mighty deeds; I will proclaim that only you always act justly.
Zan zo in furta in kuma yi shelar ayyukanka masu girma, ya Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka; zan yi shelar adalcinka, naka kaɗai.
17 God, you have taught me [many/those things] ever since I was young, and I still tell people about your wonderful deeds.
Tun ina yaro, ya Allah, ka koya mini har wa yau ina furta ayyukanka masu banmamaki.
18 And now, God, when I am old and my hair is gray, do not abandon me. [Stay with me] while I continue to proclaim to my children and grandchildren [HYP] that you are [very] powerful!
Ko sa’ad da na tsufa da furfura, kada ka yashe ni, ya Allah, sai na furta ikonka ga tsara mai zuwa, ƙarfinka ga dukan waɗanda suke zuwa.
19 God, you do many righteous deeds; [it is as though] they extend up to the sky. You have done great things; there is no one like you [RHQ].
Adalcinka ya kai sararin sama, ya Allah, kai da ka yi manyan abubuwa. Wane ne kamar ka, ya Allah?
20 You have caused me to have many troubles and to suffer much, [but] you will cause me to become strong again; when I am almost dead [HYP], you will keep me alive.
Ko da yake ka sa na ga wahaloli, masu yawa da kuma masu ɗaci, za ka sāke mayar mini da rai; daga zurfafan duniya za ka sāke tā da ni.
21 You will cause me to be greatly honored and you will encourage/comfort me again.
Za ka ƙara girmana ka sāke ta’azantar da ni.
22 I will also praise you [while I play] my harp; I will praise you, my God, for faithfully [doing what you have promised to do]. I will play hymns to praise you, the holy God whom [we] Israelis [worship].
Zan yabe ka da garaya saboda amincinka, ya Allah; zan rera yabo gare ka da molo, Ya Mai Tsarki na Isra’ila.
23 I [SYN] will shout joyfully while I play [the harp] for you; with my entire inner being I will sing because you have rescued me.
Leɓunana za su yi sowa don farin ciki sa’ad da na rera yabo gare ka, ni, wanda ka fansa.
24 All day long I will tell people that you act righteously, because those who wanted to harm me will have been defeated and disgraced.
Harshena zai ba da labarin ayyukanka masu adalci dukan yini, gama waɗanda suka so su cutar da ni sun sha kunya suka kuma rikice.
