< Psalms 129 >

1 A Song of Ascents. Many times they have afflicted me from my youth up. Let Israel now say:
Tan iyo yaraantaydii marar badan bay i dhibeen, Reer binu Israa'iil hadda ha yidhaahdeen,
2 many times they have afflicted me from my youth up, yet they have not prevailed against me.
Tan iyo yaraantaydii marar badan bay i dhibeen, Laakiinse igama ay adkaan.
3 The plowers plowed on my back. They made their furrows long.
Kuwa beerta jeexa ayaa dhabarkayga jeexay, Oo jeexjeexoodiina way dheereeyeen.
4 Yahweh is righteous. He has cut apart the cords of the wicked.
Rabbigu waa xaq, Oo isagu wuxuu kala gooyay xadhkihii kuwa sharka leh.
5 Let them be disappointed and turned backward, all those who hate Zion.
Inta Siyoon neceb oo dhammu, Ha ceeboobeen oo dib ha u noqdeen.
6 Let them be as the grass on the housetops, which withers before it grows up,
Ha noqdeen sida cawska guryaha korkooda ka baxa Oo engega intaanu korin,
7 with which the reaper doesn’t fill his hand, nor he who binds sheaves, his bosom.
Oo aan beergooyuhu gacantiisa ka buuxin, Kan xidhmooyinka xidhaana aanu laabtiisa ka buuxin.
8 Neither do those who go by say, “The blessing of Yahweh be on you. We bless you in Yahweh’s name.”
Oo kuwa ag maraana ma yidhaahdaan, Barakadii Rabbigu korkiinna ha ahaato. Waxaan idiinku ducaynaynaa magaca Rabbiga.
