Zabura 123

1 Waƙar haurawa. Na tā da idanuna gare ka, gare ka da kursiyinka yake cikin sama.

A Song of Ascents. I lift up my eyes to you, you who sit in the heavens.

2 Kamar yadda idanun bayi suna duban hannun maigidansu, kamar yadda idanun baiwa suna duban hannun uwargijiyarta, haka idanunmu suna duban Ubangiji Allahnmu, sai ya nuna mana jinƙansa.

Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress, so our eyes look to the LORD, our God, until he has mercy on us.

3 Ka yi mana jinƙai, ya Ubangiji, ka yi mana jinƙai, gama mun jimre da reni mai yawa.

Have mercy on us, LORD, have mercy on us, for we have endured much contempt.

4 Mun jimre da wulaƙanci daga masu girman kai, reni mai yawa daga masu fariya.

Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scoffing of those who are at ease, with the contempt of the proud.
