< Zabura 141 >
1 Zabura ta Dawuda. Na yi kira gare ka, ya Ubangiji; ka zo da sauri. Ka ji muryata sa’ad da na yi kira.
Yahweh, I call out to you; [please] help me quickly! Listen to me when I am calling to you.
2 Bari a sa addu’ata a gabanka kamar turaren ƙonawa; bari ɗagawa hannuwana ta zama kamar hadayar yamma.
Accept my prayer as though it were incense [being burned as an offering] [SIM] to you. And accept me while I lift up my hands [to pray] to you like you accept sacrifices [that I offer to you each] evening [SIM].
3 Ka sa mai tsaro a bakina, ya Ubangiji; ka yi tsaron ƙofar leɓunana.
Yahweh, do not allow me to say [MTY] things that are wrong; guard my lips.
4 Kada ka bar zuciyata ta juya ga yin abin da yake mugu, ta sa kai ga aikata mugayen ayyuka tare da mutane masu aikata mugunta; kada ka bari in ci abincinsu.
Prevent me from wanting to do anything that is wrong, and from joining with wicked men when they want to do evil deeds [DOU]. Do not [even] allow me to share in eating delightful food with them!
5 Bari mutum mai adalci yă buge ni, alheri ne; bar shi yă tsawata mini, mai ne a kaina. Kaina ba zai ƙi shi ba, duk da haka addu’ata kullum tana gāba da mugayen ayyuka.
It is all right if righteous people strike/hit me or rebuke me because they are trying to act kindly toward me [to teach me to do what is right], but I do not want wicked [people] to [honor me by] anointing my head with [olive] oil; I am always praying [that you will punish them because of] the wicked deeds [that they do].
6 Za a jefar da masu mulkinsu ƙasa daga ƙwanƙolin dutse, mugaye kuwa za su san cewa maganata daidai ne.
When their rulers are thrown down from the top of rocky cliffs, people will know that what you, Yahweh, said [about them] is true.
7 Za su ce, “Kamar yadda mutum kan yi huda yă tsage ƙasa, haka aka watsar da ƙasusuwanmu a bakin kabari.” (Sheol )
Like a log that is split and cut into small pieces [SIM], their shattered bones will be scattered [on the ground] near [other] graves. (Sheol )
8 Amma na kafa idanuna a kanka, ya Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka; a cikinka ina neman mafaka, kada ka miƙa ni ga mutuwa.
But Yahweh God, I [continue to] ask you [to help me]. I ask you to protect me; do not allow me to (die/be killed) [now]!
9 Ka kiyaye ni daga tarkon da aka sa mini, daga tarkon da mugaye suka sa.
[It is as though] people have set traps for me; protect me from falling into those traps, [It is as though] they have spread nets to catch me; keep me from being caught in those nets.
10 Bari mugaye su fāɗa a cikin ragarsu, amma bari ni in zo in wuce lafiya.
I desire that wicked [people] will fall into the traps they have set [to catch me] while I escape [from them].
