< Zabura 16 >
1 Miktam ne na Dawuda. Ka kiyaye ni, ya Allah, gama a cikinka nake samun mafaka.
A psalm (miktam) of David. Take care of me, Lord, for I come to you for protection.
2 Na ce wa Ubangiji, “Kai ne shugabana; in ba tare da kai ba, ba ni da wani abu mai kyau.”
I tell the Lord, “Apart from you Lord, I don't have anything that's good.”
3 Game da tsarkakan da suke cikin ƙasar kuwa, su ne masu ɗaukakar da dukan farin cikina ya dangana.
As for the holy people in the land, they are the ones who are truly great. I appreciate them.
4 Baƙin ciki zai ƙaru wa waɗanda suke bin waɗansu alloli. Ba zan zuba musu hadayarsu ta jini ba ko in ambaci sunayensu da bakina.
Those who run after other gods will face a lot of trouble. I will not participate in their offerings of blood, I will not even speak the names of their gods.
5 Ubangiji, ka ba ni rabona da kwaf ɗin na; ka kiyaye rabona,
Lord, you alone are all I have; you give me what I need; you safeguard my future.
6 Iyakoki sun fāɗo mini a wurare masu daɗi; tabbatacce ina da gādo mai bansha’awa.
The land divisions have worked out in my favor—my property is wonderful!
7 Zan yabi Ubangiji, wanda yake ba ni shawara; ko da dare ma zuciyata kan koya mini.
I will bless the Lord who gives me good advice; even at night my conscience tells me what is right.
8 Kullum nakan sa Ubangiji a gabana. Gama yana a hannun damana, ba zan jijjigu ba.
I have always kept the Lord in front of me. I will not be shaken, for he is right beside me.
9 Saboda haka zuciyata tana murna harshena kuma yana farin ciki; jikina kuma zai zauna lafiya,
That's why I'm so happy! That's why I am full of joy! That's why my body lives in hope!
10 domin ba za ka yashe ni a kabari ba, ba kuwa za ka bar Mai Tsarkinka yă ruɓa ba. (Sheol )
For you will not abandon me in the grave, nor will you allow your Holy One to experience decay. (Sheol )
11 Ka sanar da ni hanyar rai; za ka cika ni da farin ciki a gabanka, da madawwamin jin daɗi a hannun damarka.
You have shown me the path of life, filling me with joy with your presence and the delight of living with you forever.
