Sabuurradii 120

1 Anigoo cidhiidhi ku jira ayaan Rabbiga u qayshaday, Oo isna wuu ii jawaabay.

In my distress I cried unto YHWH, and he heard me.

2 Rabbiyow, naftayda ka samatabbixi bushimo been sheega, Iyo carrab khiyaano badan.

Deliver my soul, O YHWH, from lying lips, and from a deceitful tongue.

3 Carrabka khiyaanada badanow, bal maxaa lagu siin doonaa? Oo maxaa kaloo laguu samayn doonaa?

What shall be given unto thee? or what shall be done unto thee, thou false tongue?

4 Adoo ah sida ku xoog badan oo fallaadhihiisa afaysan, Kuwaas oo wata dhuxulo geed rotem la yidhaahdo.

Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper.

5 Anaa hoogay, waayo, Mesheg baan qariib ku noqday, Oo waxaan dhex degay teendhooyinkii Qedaar!

Woe is me, that I sojourn in Mesech, that I dwell in the tents of Kedar!

6 Naftaydu waxay wakhti dheer la degganayd Mid nabadda neceb.

My soul hath long dwelt with him that hateth peace.

7 Waxaan ahay mid nabad jecel, Laakiinse kolkii aan hadlo, iyagu waa kuwa dagaal jecel.

I am for peace: but when I speak, they are for war.
