Zabura 28
1 Ta Dawuda. A gare ka nake kira, ya Ubangiji Dutsena; kada ka yi mini kunnen ƙashi. Gama in ka yi shiru, zan zama kamar waɗanda suka gangara rami.
A psalm of David. Lord, my rock, I'm calling out to you. Please listen to me! For if you don't respond, I'll be like those who go down into the grave.
2 Ka ji kukata ta neman jinƙai yayinda nake kira ka don neman taimako, yayinda nake daga hannuwana wajen Wurinka Mafi Tsarki.
Listen as I appeal for mercy, as I call for help, as I hold up my hands in prayer towards your holy Temple.
3 Kada ka ja ni tare da mugaye, tare da masu yin mugunta, masu magana kamar ta alheri ce da maƙwabtansu amma suna riƙe da su a zukatansu.
Don't drag me off with the wicked, with those who do evil, who speak nicely to their neighbors while in their minds they're plotting evil.
4 Ka sāka musu da ayyukansu da kuma don mugun aikinsu; ka sāka musu saboda abin da hannuwansu suka yi ka kuma mayar musu abin da ya dace da su.
Give them what they deserve for their evil actions. Pay them back for what they've done. Give them the reward they've earned!
5 Da yake ba su kula da ayyukan Ubangiji da abin da hannuwansa suka yi ba, zai rushe su ba kuwa zai ƙara gina su ba.
For they don't pay any attention to what the Lord does, or to what he created. So he will destroy them—they will never be restored.
6 Yabo ya tabbata ga Ubangiji, gama ya ji kukata na neman jinƙai.
Praise the Lord! For he has heard my appeal for mercy!
7 Ubangiji shi ne ƙarfina da garkuwata; zuciyata ta amince da shi, kuma na sami taimako. Zuciyata ta yi tsalle don farin ciki zan kuwa yi godiya gare shi cikin waƙa.
The Lord is my strength and my shield. I trust in him and he helps me. I'm so happy, and I sing my thanks to him.
8 Ubangiji shi ne ƙarfin mutanensa, kagarar ceto domin shafaffensa.
The Lord gives strength to his people; he is a safe refuge for the one he has anointed.
9 Ka cece mutanenka ka kuma albarkace gādonka; ka zama mai kiwonsu ka kuma riƙe su har abada.
Save your people! Bless your “special possession”! Be their shepherd and carry them in your arms forever!
