Zabura 124

1 Waƙar haurawa. Ta Dawuda. Da ba don Ubangiji ya kasance a gefenmu ba, bari Isra’ila yă ce,

A song of ascents. Of David. If the LORD had not been on our side— let Israel now declare—

2 da ba don Ubangiji ya kasance a gefenmu ba sa’ad da aka auka mana,

if the LORD had not been on our side when men attacked us,

3 sa’ad da fushinsu ya ƙuna a kanmu, ai, da sun haɗiye mu da rai;

when their anger flared against us, then they would have swallowed us alive,

4 da rigyawa ta kwashe mu, da ambaliya ta rufe mu.

then the floods would have engulfed us, then the torrent would have overwhelmed us,

5 Da ruwa mai hauka ya share mu ƙaf.

then the raging waters would have swept us away.

6 Yabo ya tabbata ga Ubangiji, wanda bai bari aka yayyage mu da haƙoransu ba.

Blessed be the LORD, who has not given us as prey to their teeth.

7 Mun tsira kamar tsuntsu daga tarkon mai farauta; an tsinke tarko, muka kuwa tsira.

We have escaped like a bird from the snare of the fowler; the net is torn, and we have slipped away.

8 Taimakonmu yana a sunan Ubangiji, Wanda ya yi sama da ƙasa.

Our help is in the name of the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.
