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 Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.] Deliver me, YHWH, from the evil man. Preserve me from the violent man;
2 masu shirya maƙarƙashiya a zukatansu suna kuma kawo yaƙi kullum.
those who devise mischief in their hearts. They continually gather themselves together for war.
3 Suna sa harsunansu su yi kaifi kamar na maciji; dafin gamsheƙa yana a leɓunansu. (Sela)
They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent. Viper's poison is under their lips. (Selah)
4 Ka kiyaye ni, ya Ubangiji, daga hannuwan mugaye; ka tsare ni daga mutane masu rikici waɗanda suke shirin kwashe ni a ƙafafu.
YHWH, keep me from the hands of the wicked. Preserve me from the violent men who have determined to trip my feet.
5 Masu girman kai sun sa mini tarko; sun shimfiɗa igiyoyin ragarsu sun kuma shirya mini tarko a hanyata. (Sela)
The proud have hidden a snare for me, they have spread the cords of a net by the path. They have set traps for me. (Selah)
6 Ya Ubangiji, na ce maka, “Kai ne Allahna.” Ka ji kukata ta neman jinƙai, ya Ubangiji.
I said to YHWH, "You are my God." Listen to the cry of my petitions, YHWH.
7 Ya Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka, mai fansana mai ƙarfi, wanda yake garkuwoyin kaina a ranar yaƙi.
YHWH, the Lord, the strength of my salvation, you have covered 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)
YHWH, do not grant the desires of the wicked. Do not let their evil plans succeed, or they will become proud. (Selah)
9 Bari kawunan waɗanda suka kewaye ni su rufu da masifun da leɓunansu suka jawo.
As for the head of those who surround me, let the mischief of their own lips 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.
Let burning coals fall on them. Let them be thrown into the fire, into miry pits, from where they never rise.
11 Kada masu ɓata suna su taɓa kahu a ƙasar; bari masifa ta farauci mutane masu rikici.
An evil speaker won't be established in the earth. Evil will hunt the violent man to overthrow him.
12 Na san cewa Ubangiji ya shirya wa matalauta adalci yana kuma yi wa mabukata adalci.
I know that YHWH will maintain the cause of the afflicted, and justice for the needy.
13 Tabbatacce masu adalci za su yabi sunanka masu aikata gaskiya kuma za su zauna a gabanka.
Surely the righteous will give thanks to your name. The upright will dwell in your presence.
