Zabura 124

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

A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. BY DAVID. If YHWH had not been for us (Pray, let Israel say),

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

If YHWH had not been for us, In the rising up of man against us,

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

Then they had swallowed us alive, In the burning of their anger against us,

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

Then the waters had overflowed us, The stream passed over our soul,

5 Da ruwa mai hauka ya share mu ƙaf.

Then proud waters had passed over our soul.

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

Blessed [is] YHWH 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.

Our soul has escaped as a bird from a snare of fowlers, The snare was broken, and we have escaped.

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

Our help [is] in the Name of YHWH, Maker of the heavens and earth!
