Zabura 129

1 Waƙar haurawa. Sun yi mini danniya ƙwarai tun ina ƙarami, bari Isra’ila yă ce,

A song of degrees. They haue often times afflicted me from my youth (may Israel nowe say)

2 sun yi mini danniya ƙwarai tun ina ƙarami, amma ba su yi nasara a kaina ba.

They haue often times afflicted me from my youth: but they could not preuaile against me.

3 Manoma sun nome bayana suka yi kunyoyinsu da tsayi.

The plowers plowed vpon my backe, and made long furrowes.

4 Amma Ubangiji mai adalci ne; ya’yantar da ni daga igiyoyin mugaye.

But the righteous Lord hath cut the cordes of the wicked.

5 Bari dukan waɗanda suke ƙin Sihiyona a juye da su baya da kunya.

They that hate Zion, shalbe all ashamed and turned backward.

6 Bari su zama kamar ciyawa a kan rufi, wadda takan bushe kafin tă yi girma;

They shalbe as the grasse on the house tops, which withereth afore it commeth forth.

7 da ita mai girbi ba ya iya cika hannuwansa, balle wanda yake tarawa yă cika hannuwansa.

Whereof the mower filleth not his hand, neither the glainer his lap:

8 Kada masu wuce su ce, “Albarkar Ubangiji ta kasance a kanku; muna sa muku albarka a cikin sunan Ubangiji.”

Neither they, which go by, say, The blessing of the Lord be vpon you, or, We blesse you in the Name of the Lord.
