Psalms 140
1 To the Overseer. — A Psalm of David. Deliver me, O Jehovah, from an evil man, From one of violence Thou keepest me.
Rabbiyow, ninka sharka leh iga samatabbixi, Oo iga ilaali ninka dulmiga badan,
2 Who have devised evils in the heart, All the day they assemble [for] wars.
Kuwaasoo qalbigooda kaga fikira belaayooyin, Had iyo goorna dagaal bay isu soo urursadaan.
3 They sharpened their tongue as a serpent, Poison of an adder [is] under their lips. (Selah)
Waxay carrabkoodii u afaysteen sidii abeeso oo kale, Oo bushimahoodana waxaa ku hoos jirta waabaydii jilbiska. (Selaah)
4 Preserve me, Jehovah, from the hands of the wicked, From one of violence Thou keepest me, Who have devised to overthrow my steps.
Rabbiyow, gacmaha kuwa sharka leh iga dhawr, Oo iga ilaali ninka dulmiga badan, Kuwaasoo u qasdiyey inay tallaabooyinkayga dhinac u leexiyaan.
5 The proud hid a snare for me — and cords, They spread a net by the side of the path, Snares they have set for me. (Selah)
Kuwa kibirka badanu waxay ii qariyeen dabin iyo xadhko, Oo jidka dhinaciisana waxay ii gogleen shabag, oo siriq bay ii qooleen. (Selaah)
6 I have said to Jehovah, 'My God [art] Thou, Hear, Jehovah, the voice of my supplications.'
Waxaan Rabbiga ku idhi, Waxaad tahay Ilaahayga, Haddaba, Rabbiyow, bal dhegta u dhig codka baryootankayga.
7 O Jehovah, my Lord, strength of my salvation, Thou hast covered my head in the day of armour.
Ilaahow Sayidow, xooggii badbaadadaydow, Maalintii dagaalka madaxaygaad dabooshay.
8 Grant not, O Jehovah, the desires of the wicked, His wicked device bring not forth, They are high. (Selah)
Rabbiyow, kuwa sharka leh ha siin waxay doonayaan, Oo horay ha u sii wadin xeeladdooda sharka ah, waaba intaasoo ay kor isu qaadaane. (Selaah)
9 The chief of my surrounders, The perverseness of their lips covereth them.
Oo kuwa igu wareegsan madaxoodana Belaayada bushimahooda ka soo baxaysa ha daboosho.
10 They cause to fall on themselves burning coals, Into fire He doth cast them, Into deep pits — they arise not.
Dhuxulo ololaya ha ku soo dul daateen, Oo iyaga ha lagu dhex tuuro dabka, Iyo godad aad u dhaadheer, si aanay mar dambe u soo sara kicin.
11 A talkative man is not established in the earth, One of violence — evil hunteth to overflowing.
Ninka sharka ku hadlaa yaanu dhulka ku sii waarin, Sharku wuxuu u ugaadhsan doonaa ninka dulmiga badan inuu afgembiyo aawadeed.
12 I have known that Jehovah doth execute The judgment of the afflicted, The judgment of the needy.
Waan ogahay in Rabbigu kuwa dhibban dacwadooda u gar qaadi doono, Oo uu kuwa baahanna xaqooda siin doono.
13 Only — the righteous give thanks to Thy name, The upright do dwell with Thy presence!
Hubaal kuwa xaqa ahu waxay ku mahadnaqi doonaan magacaaga, Oo kuwa qummanuna waxay joogi doonaan hortaada.
