< Zabura 64 >

1 Don mai bi da kaɗe-kaɗe. Zabura ta Dawuda. Ka ji ni, ya Allah, yayinda nake faɗin abin da yake damuna; ka tsare raina daga barazanan abokin gāba.
To the chief music-maker. A Psalm. Of David. O God, let the voice of my grief come to your ear: keep my life from the fear of those who are against me.
2 Ka ɓoye ni daga ƙulle-ƙullen mugaye, daga daure dauren wannan taro masu aikata mugunta.
Keep me safe from the secret purpose of wrongdoers; from the band of the workers of evil;
3 Sukan wāsa harsunansu kamar takuba su harba kalmominsu kamar kibiyoyi masu kisa.
Who make their tongues sharp like a sword, and whose arrows are pointed, even bitter words;
4 Sukan yin kwanto su harbi marar laifi; sukan yi harbi nan da nan, ba tsoro.
So that in secret they may let loose their arrows at the upright, suddenly and unseen.
5 Sukan ƙarfafa juna a mugayen ƙulle-ƙullensu, sukan yi magana yadda za su ɓoye tarkunansu; su ce, “Wa zai gan su?”
They make themselves strong in an evil purpose; they make holes for secret nets; they say, Who will see it,
6 Sukan yi ƙulle-ƙullen rashin adalci su ce, “Mun gama ƙulla cikakkiyar maƙarƙashiya tsab!” Zuciyar mutum da tunaninsa, suna da wuyar ganewa.
Or make discovery of our secret purpose? The design is framed with care; and the inner thought of a man, and his heart, is deep.
7 Amma Allah zai harbe su da kibiyoyi; nan da nan za a buge su su fāɗi.
But God sends out an arrow against them; suddenly they are wounded.
8 Zai juya harshensu a kansu yă kuma kawo su ga hallaka; duk waɗanda suka gan su za su kaɗa kai, suna musu ba’a.
The evil of their tongues is the cause of their fall; all those who see them are shaking their heads at them.
9 Dukan mutane za su ji tsoro; za su yi shelar ayyukan Allah su kuma yi tunanin abin da ya aikata.
And in fear men make public the works of God; and giving thought to his acts they get wisdom.
10 Bari masu adalci su yi farin ciki a cikin Ubangiji su kuma nemi mafaka a gare shi; bari dukan masu gaskiya a zuciya su yabe shi!
The upright will be glad in the Lord and have hope in him; and all the lovers of righteousness will give him glory.
