Zabura 54

1 Don mai bi da kaɗe-kaɗe. Da kayan kiɗi masu tsirkiya. Wani maskil ta Dawuda. Sa’ad da Zifawa suka tafi wurin Shawulu suka ce, “Ba Dawuda ba ne yake ɓuya a cikinmu?” Ka cece ni, ya Allah ta wurin sunanka; ka nuna ni marar laifi ne ta wurin ƙarfinka.

“For the leader of the music. To be sung on stringed instruments A psalm of David, when the Ziphites came and said to Saul, Doth not David hide himself with us?” Save me, O God! by thy name, And by thy strength defend my cause!

2 Ka ji addu’ata, ya Allah; ka saurari maganar bakina.

O God! hear my prayer, Give ear to the words of my mouth!

3 Baƙi suna kawo mini hari; mutane marasa imani suna neman raina, mutanen da ba sa tsoron Allah. (Sela)

For enemies have risen up against me, And oppressors seek my life; They have not set God before their eyes. (Pause)

4 Tabbatacce Allah ne mai taimakona, Ubangiji shi ne wanda yake riƙe ni.

Behold! God is my helper; The Lord is the support of my life.

5 Bari mugunta ta shaƙe masu magana marar kyau a kaina; cikin amincinka ka hallaka su.

He will repay evil to my enemies; For thy truth's sake, O God! cut them off!

6 Zan miƙa hadaya ta yardar rai gare ka; zan yabe sunanka, ya Ubangiji, gama yana da kyau.

With a willing heart will I sacrifice to thee; I will praise thy name, O LORD! for it is good;

7 Gama ya cece ni daga dukan wahalolina, idanuna kuma sun ga an yi nasara a kan maƙiyana.

For thou hast delivered me from all trouble, So that my eye hath looked with joy upon my enemies!
