Zabura 124

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

A song of degrees, or Psalme of David. If the Lord had not bene on our side, (may Israel now say)

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

If the Lord had not bene on our side, when men rose vp against vs,

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

They had then swallowed vs vp quicke, when their wrath was kindled against vs.

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

Then the waters had drowned vs, and the streame had gone ouer our soule:

5 Da ruwa mai hauka ya share mu ƙaf.

Then had the swelling waters gone ouer our soule.

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

Praysed be the Lord, which hath not giuen vs as a praye vnto their teeth.

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

Our soule is escaped, euen as a bird out of the snare of the foulers: the snare is broken, and we are deliuered.

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

Our helpe is in the Name of the Lord, which hath made heauen and earth.
