< Zabura 143 >
1 Zabura ta Dawuda. Ya Ubangiji, ka ji addu’ata, ka saurari kukata don neman jinƙai; cikin amincinka da adalcinka ka amsa mini.
A Psalm. Of David. Let my prayer come to you, O Lord; give ear to my requests for your grace; keep faith with me, and give me an answer in your righteousness;
2 Kada ka gabatar da bawanka a gaban shari’a, gama babu wani mai rai da yake adali a gabanka.
Let not your servant come before you to be judged; for no man living is upright in your eyes.
3 Abokin gāba yana fafarata, ya murƙushe ni har ƙasa; ya sa ina zama a cikin duhu kamar waɗanda suka mutu tun tuni.
The evil man has gone after my soul; my life is crushed down to the earth: he has put me in the dark, like those who have long been dead.
4 Ta haka ƙarfina ya ƙare a cikina zuciyata ta damu ƙwarai.
Because of this my spirit is overcome; and my heart is full of fear.
5 Na tuna da kwanakin baya na yi tunani a kan dukan ayyukanka na kuma lura da abin da hannuwanka suka yi.
I keep in mind the early days of the past, giving thought to all your acts, even to the work of your hands.
6 Na buɗe hannuwana gare ka; raina yana jin ƙishinka kamar busasshiyar ƙasa. (Sela)
My hands are stretched out to you: my soul is turned to you, like a land in need of water. (Selah)
7 Ka amsa mini da sauri, ya Ubangiji; ƙarfina ya ƙare. Kada ka ɓoye fuskarka daga gare ni in ba haka ba zan zama kamar waɗanda suka gangara zuwa rami.
Be quick in answering me, O Lord, for the strength of my spirit is gone: let me see your face, so that I may not be like those who go down into the underworld.
8 Bari safiya ta kawo mini maganar ƙaunarka marar ƙarewa, gama na sa zuciyata a gare ka. Ka nuna mini hanyar da zan bi, gama a gare ka na miƙa raina.
Let the story of your mercy come to me in the morning, for my hope is in you: give me knowledge of the way in which I am to go; for my soul is lifted up to you.
9 Ka cece ni daga abokan gābana, ya Ubangiji, gama na ɓoye kaina a gare ka.
O Lord, take me out of the hands of my haters; my soul is waiting for you.
10 Ka koya mini in yi nufinka, gama kai ne Allahna; bari nagarin Ruhunka yă bi da ni a ƙasar da ba gargaɗa.
Give me teaching so that I may do your pleasure; for you are my God: let your good Spirit be my guide into the land of righteousness.
11 Saboda sunanka, ya Ubangiji, ka kiyaye raina; a cikin adalcinka, ka fid da ni daga wahala.
Give me life, O Lord, because of your name; in your righteousness take my soul out of trouble.
12 A cikin ƙaunarka marar ƙarewa, ka rufe bakunan abokan gābana; ka hallaka dukan maƙiyana, gama ni bawanka ne.
And in your mercy put an end to my haters, and send destruction on all those who are against my soul; for I am your servant.
