Zabura 101

1 Ta Dawuda. Zabura ce. Zan rera wa ƙauna da adalcinka; gare ka, ya Ubangiji, zan rera yabo.

Of David, a psalm. If kindness and justice I sing, making melody to you, Lord.

2 Zan yi hankali ga yin rayuwa marar zargi, yaushe za ka zo gare ni? Zan bi da sha’anin gidana da zuciya marar abin zargi

I would look to the way that is blameless, and make it my own. Within my own house I would walk with an innocent heart.

3 Ba zan kafa a gaban idanuna 1 wani abu marar kyau ba. Na ƙi jinin ayyukan mutane marasa aminci; ba za su manne mini ba.

I would never direct my eyes to a thing that is base. The impulse to stray I abhor it shall not cling to me.

4 Mutane masu mugun zuciya za su nesa da ni; ba abin da zai haɗa ni da mugunta.

Far from me be perverseness of heart, or kinship with evil.

5 Duk wanda ya yi ɓatanci wa maƙwabcinsa a ɓoye shi za a kashe; duk mai renin wayo da mai girman kai, ba zan jure masa ba.

Who slanders their neighbour in secret, I bring them to silence: haughty looks and proud hearts I will not abide.

6 Idanuna za su kasance a kan amintattu a cikin ƙasar, don su zauna tare da ni; tafiyarsa ba ta da zargi zai yi mini hidima.

I will favour the true in the land, they shall live in my court. Those who walk in a way that is blameless will be my attendant.

7 Babu mai ruɗun da zai zauna a gidana; babu mai ƙaryan da zai tsaya a gabana.

No one will live in my house who practises guile. No one that speaks a lie will abide in my presence.

8 Kowace safiya zan rufe bakunan dukan mugaye a ƙasar; zan yanke kowane mai aikata mugunta daga birnin Ubangiji.

Morn by morn I will wholly wipe out all the bad in the land, and cut off from the Lord’s own city all workers of evil.
