Zabura 12

1 Don mai bi da kaɗe-kaɗe. Da kayan kiɗi. Bisa ga sheminit. Zabura ta Dawuda. Ka taimaka, Ubangiji, gama masu tsoron Allah ba sa nan kuma; masu aminci sun ɓace daga cikin mutane.

For the end, A Psalm of David, upon the eighth. Save me, O Lord; for the godly man has failed; for truth is diminished from among the children of men.

2 Kowa yana yi wa maƙwabcinsa ƙarya; zaƙin bakinsu maganar ƙarya ce suna cike da ruɗu a zukatansu.

Every one has spoken vanity to his neighbor: their lips are deceitful, they have spoken with a double heart.

3 Bari Ubangiji yă yanke dukan zaƙin bakinsu da kuma kowane harshe mai fariya,

Let the Lord destroy all the deceitful lips, and the tongue that speaks great words:

4 masu cewa, “Da harsunanmu za mu yi nasara; leɓunanmu za su kāre mu, wane ne maigidanmu?”

who have said, We will magnify our tongue; our lips are our own: who is Lord of us?

5 “Saboda danniyar marasa ƙarfi da kuma nishin masu bukata, zan tashi yanzu,” in ji Ubangiji. “Zan kāre su daga masu yin musu sharri.”

Because of the misery of the poor, and because of the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, says the Lord, I will set [them] in safety; I will speak [to them] thereof openly.

6 Kalmomin Ubangiji kuwa ba su da kuskure, kamar azurfan da aka tace cikin matoyan yumɓu, aka tsabtacce sau bakwai.

The oracles of the Lord are pure oracles; as silver tried in the fire, proved [in] a furnace of earth, purified seven times.

7 Ya Ubangiji, za ka kiyaye mu lafiya ka tsare mu daga irin mutanen nan har abada.

You, O Lord, shall keep us, and shall preserve us, from this generation, and for ever.

8 Mugaye suna yawo a sake sa’ad da ake girmama abin da ba shi da kyau a cikin mutane.

The ungodly walk around: according to your greatness you has greatly exalted the sons of men.
