Zabura 53

1 Don mai bi da kaɗe-kaɗe. Bisa ga mahalat. Wani maskil na Dawuda. Wawa ne kawai yakan ce a zuciyarsa, “Ba Allah.” Sun lalace, kuma hanyoyinsu ba su da kyau; babu wani mai aikata abu mai kyau.

For the leader. On mahalath. A maskil of David. Fools say in their heart, “There is no God.” Vile, hateful their life is; not one does good.

2 Allah yana duba daga sama a kan’ya’yan mutane yă ga ko akwai wani wanda ya gane, wani wanda yake neman Allah.

From heaven God looks out on humans, to see if any are wise, and care for God.

3 Kowa ya kauce, gaba ɗaya sun lalace; babu guda da yake aikata abu mai kyau, babu ko ɗaya.

But all have turned bad, the taint is on all; not one does good, no, not one.

4 Masu aikata mugunta ba sa taɓa koyo? Suna cin mutanena kamar yadda ake cin burodi, ba sa kuma kira ga Allah.

Have they learned their lesson, those workers of evil? Who ate up my people, eating, devouring, never calling to the Lord.

5 Ga shi fa, sun firgita don tsoro, ko da yake babu dalilin tsoro, gama Allah zai watsar da ƙasusuwan masu ƙinsa, za su sha kunya, gama Allah ya ƙi su.

Sore afraid will they be, where no fear was; when God scatters the bones of the godless people. They will be put to shame, when God rejects them.

6 Kash, da ceton Isra’ila zai fito daga Sihiyona mana! Sa’ad da Allah ya sāke arzuta mutanensa, bari Yaƙub yă yi farin ciki Isra’ila kuma yă yi murna!

If only help from Zion would come for Israel! When God brings his people a change of fortune, how glad will be Jacob, and Israel how joyful!
