Zabura 140
1 Don mai bi da kaɗe-kaɗe. Zabura ta Dawuda. Ka cece ni, ya Ubangiji, daga mugaye; ka tsare ni daga mutane masu rikici,
For the end, a Psalm of David. Rescue me, O Lord, from the evil man; deliver me from the unjust man.
2 masu shirya maƙarƙashiya a zukatansu suna kuma kawo yaƙi kullum.
Who have devised injustice in their hearts; all the day they prepared war.
3 Suna sa harsunansu su yi kaifi kamar na maciji; dafin gamsheƙa yana a leɓunansu. (Sela)
They have sharpened their tongue as [the tongue] of a serpent; the poison of asps is under their lips. (Pause)
4 Ka kiyaye ni, ya Ubangiji, daga hannuwan mugaye; ka tsare ni daga mutane masu rikici waɗanda suke shirin kwashe ni a ƙafafu.
Keep me, O Lord, from the hand of the sinner; rescue me from unjust men; who have purposed to overthrow my goings.
5 Masu girman kai sun sa mini tarko; sun shimfiɗa igiyoyin ragarsu sun kuma shirya mini tarko a hanyata. (Sela)
The proud have hid a snare for me, and have stretched out ropes [for] snares for my feet; they set a stumbling block for me near the path. (Pause)
6 Ya Ubangiji, na ce maka, “Kai ne Allahna.” Ka ji kukata ta neman jinƙai, ya Ubangiji.
I said to the Lord, You are my God; listen, O Lord, to the voice of my supplication.
7 Ya Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka, mai fansana mai ƙarfi, wanda yake garkuwoyin kaina a ranar yaƙi.
O Lord God, the strength of my salvation; you have screened my head in the day of battle.
8 Kada ka biya wa mugaye bukatunsu, ya Ubangiji; kada ka bar shirinsu su yi nasara, in ba haka ba za su yi fariya. (Sela)
Deliver me not, O Lord, to the sinner, according to my desire: they have devised [mischief] against me; forsake me not, lest they should be exalted. (Pause)
9 Bari kawunan waɗanda suka kewaye ni su rufu da masifun da leɓunansu suka jawo.
[As for] the head of them that compass me, the mischief of their lips shall cover them.
10 Bari garwashin wuta yă zubo a kansu; bari a jefar da su cikin wuta, cikin rami mai zurfi, kada su sāke tashi.
Coals of fire shall fall upon them on the earth; and you shall cast them down in afflictions: they shall not bear up [under them].
11 Kada masu ɓata suna su taɓa kahu a ƙasar; bari masifa ta farauci mutane masu rikici.
A talkative man shall not prosper on the earth: evils shall hunt the unrighteous man to destruction.
12 Na san cewa Ubangiji ya shirya wa matalauta adalci yana kuma yi wa mabukata adalci.
I know that the Lord will maintain the cause of the poor, and the right of the needy ones.
13 Tabbatacce masu adalci za su yabi sunanka masu aikata gaskiya kuma za su zauna a gabanka.
Surely the righteous shall give thanks to your name: the upright shall dwell in your presence.
