Zabura 27
1 Ta Dawuda. Ubangiji ne haskena da cetona, wa zan ji tsoro? Ubangiji ne mafakar raina, wane ne zan ji tsoro?
[A Psalm] of David, before he was anointed. The Lord is my light and my Saviour; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the defender of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
2 Sa’ad da mugaye suka tasar mini don su cinye ni, sa’ad da abokan gābana da maƙiyina suka kawo mini hari, sun yi tuntuɓe suka fāɗi.
When evil-doers drew nigh against me to eat up my flesh, my persecutors and mine enemies, they fainted and fell.
3 Ko da yake mayaƙa sun kewaye ni, zuciyata ba za tă ji tsoro ba; ko da yake ya ɓarke a kaina, duk da haka zan ƙarfafa.
Though an army should set itself in array against me, my heart shall not be afraid: though war should rise up against me, in this am I confident.
4 Abu guda na roƙi Ubangiji, wannan shi ne na nema, cewa in zauna a gidan Ubangiji dukan kwanakin raina, in dubi kyan Ubangiji in kuma neme shi a cikin haikalinsa.
One thing have I asked of the Lord, this will I earnestly seek: that I should dwell in the house of the Lord, all the days of my life, that I should behold the fair beauty of the Lord, and survey his temple.
5 Gama a lokacin wahala, zai kiyaye ni lafiya a wurin zamansa; zai ɓoye ni cikin inuwar tabanakul nasa ya kuma sa ni can a bisa dutse.
For in the day of mine afflictions he hid me in his tabernacle: he sheltered me in the secret of his tabernacle; he set me up on a rock.
6 Sa’an nan kaina zai ɗaukaka a bisa abokan gābana waɗanda suka kewaye ni; a tabanakul nasa zan miƙa hadaya da sowa ta farin ciki; zan rera in kuma yi kiɗi ga Ubangiji.
And now, behold, he has lifted up mine head over mine enemies: I went round and offered in his tabernacle the sacrifice of joy; I will sing even sing psalms to the Lord.
7 Ka ji muryata sa’ad da na yi kira, ya Ubangiji; ka yi mini jinƙai ka kuma amsa mini.
Hear, O Lord, my voice which I have uttered aloud: pity me, and hearken to me.
8 Zuciyata kan faɗa game da kai, “Nemi fuskarsa!” Fuskarka, Ubangiji, zan nema.
My heart said to thee, I have diligently sought thy face: thy face, O Lord, I will seek.
9 Kada ka ɓoye fuskarka daga gare ni, kada ka kore bawanka daga gare ka cikin fushi; kai ne ka kasance mai taimakona. Kada ka ƙi ni ko ka yashe ni, Ya Allah Mai cetona.
Turn not thy face away from me, turn not thou away from thy servant in anger: be thou my helper, forsake me not; and, O God my Saviour, overlook me not.
10 Ko da mahaifina da mahaifiyata sun yashe ni, Ubangiji zai karɓe ni.
For my father and my mother have forsaken me, but the Lord has taken me to himself.
11 Ka koya mini hanyarka, ya Ubangiji; ka bi da ni a miƙaƙƙiyar hanya saboda masu danne ni.
Teach me, O Lord, in thy way, and guide me in a right path, because of mine enemies.
12 Kada ka ba da ni da sha’awar maƙiyina, gama masu shaidar ƙarya sun taso a kaina, suna numfasa tashin hankali.
Deliver me not over to the desire of them that afflict me; for unjust witnesses have risen up against me, and injustice has lied within herself.
13 Har yanzu ina da ƙarfin gwiwa a wannan cewa zan ga alherin Ubangiji; a ƙasar masu rai.
I believe that I shall see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.
14 Ka dogara ga Ubangiji, ka yi ƙarfin hali ka yi ƙarfin zuciya ka kuma dogara ga Ubangiji.
Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and let thy heart be strengthened: yea wait on the Lord.
