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 Yahweh had not been on our side,” let Israel say now,

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

“if it had not been Yahweh who was on our side when men rose up against us,

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

then they would have swallowed us up alive when their anger raged against us.

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

The water would have swept us away; the torrent would have overwhelmed us.

5 Da ruwa mai hauka ya share mu ƙaf.

Then the raging waters would have drowned us.”

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

Blessed be Yahweh, who has not allowed us to be torn by their teeth.

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

We have escaped like a bird out of the snare of the fowlers; the snare has been broken, and we have escaped.

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

Our help is in Yahweh, who made heaven and earth.
