Zabura 7
1 Wani shiggayiyon ta Dawuda, wanda Ya Rera wa Ubangiji game da Kush mutumin Benyamin. Ya Ubangiji Allahna, na zo neman mafaka a wurinka; ka cece ni ka kuɓutar da ni daga dukan waɗanda suke bi na,
Yahweh my God, I come to you to protect me. Rescue me, save me from all those who are pursuing me [in order to harm me].
2 in ba haka ba za su yayyage ni kamar zaki su ɓarke ni kucu-kucu ba tare da wani da zai cece ni ba.
If you do not do that, they will tear me into pieces like a lion does [when it attacks the animals it wants to kill], and no one will save me [from them].
3 Ya Ubangiji Allahna, in na yi kuskure aka kuwa sami laifi a hannuwana,
Yahweh my God, if I have done anything that is wrong,
4 in na yi mugunta ga wanda yake zaman lafiya da ni ko kuwa ba da wani dalilin cuci abokin gābana,
if I have done evil to some friend who did good things to me, or if, for no good reason, I have spared (OR, acted violently toward) those who were my enemies,
5 to, bari abokin gābana yă bi yă kuma cim mini; bari yă tattake raina a ƙasa ya sa in kwana a ƙura. (Sela)
allow my enemies to pursue me and capture me. Allow them to trample me into the ground and leave me [SYN] [lying dead] in the dirt.
6 Ka tashi, ya Ubangiji, cikin fushinka; ka tashi gāba da fushin abokan gābana. Ka farka, Allahna, ka umarta adalci.
But Yahweh, because you are [very] angry [with those who pursue me], arise and attack/defeat my enemies who are furiously/angrily [attacking me] Do to them what is just!
7 Bari taron mutane su taru kewaye da kai. Ka yi mulki a bisansu daga bisa;
Gather around you the people of [all] nations, and rule them from where you are in heaven [MTY].
8 bari Ubangiji mai shari’ar mutane. Ka shari’anta ni Ya Ubangiji, bisa ga adalcina, bisa ga mutuncina, ya Mafi Ɗaukaka.
Yahweh, judge the people of [all] nations! And, Yahweh, show that I have done nothing that is wrong.
9 Ya Allah mai adalci, wanda yake binciken tunani da zukata, ka kawo ƙarshen rikicin mugaye ka kuma sa adalai su zauna lafiya.
God, you know what every person is thinking, and because you are righteous, you [always] do what is just/right. [So now] stop evil people from doing wicked [deeds], and defend [all of us who are] righteous!
10 Garkuwata shi ne Allah Mafi Ɗaukaka, wanda yake ceton masu tsabtar zuciya.
God, you protect me like a shield [protects soldiers] [MET]; you protect all those who are righteous in their inner being.
11 Allah alƙali ne mai adalci, Allahn da yakan bayyana fushinsa kowace rana.
You judge [everyone] correctly, and every day you punish [wicked people].
12 In mutum bai tuba ba, Allah zai wasa takobinsa; zai tanƙware yă kuma ɗaura bakansa.
Whenever your enemies do not (repent/change their behavior), [it is as though] [MET] you sharpen your sword and put a string on your bow [to get ready to kill them].
13 Ya shirya makamansa masu dafi; ya shirya kibiyoyinsa masu wuta.
You are preparing your weapons that kill those whom they strike; the arrows that you will shoot have flaming tips.
14 Wanda yake da cikin mugunta ya kuma ɗauki cikin damuwa yakan haifi ƙarya.
Wicked people tell lies, and they think that they surely will be able to do [MET] the evil things that they are planning to do [just as surely as] a pregnant woman [knows that she is going to give birth to a child] [MET].
15 Wanda ya haƙa rami yakan fāɗa cikin ramin da ya haƙa.
But when they dig a deep pit [to trap others], they themselves will fall into it.
16 Damuwar da ya ja yakan sāke nannaɗe a kansa; fitinarsa takan sauka a kansa.
They themselves will experience the trouble that they want to cause others to have; they will hurt themselves by the violent things that they want to do to others.
17 Zan gode wa Ubangiji saboda adalcinsa zan kuma rera yabo ga sunan Ubangiji Mafi Ɗaukaka.
I praise Yahweh because he [always acts] righteously/justly; I sing to praise Yahweh, the one who is much greater than any other god.
