Sabuurradii 17
1 Rabbiyow, xaqa maqal, oo qayladayda u jeeso, Oo baryadayda dhegta u dhig, taasoo aan ka bixin bushimo khiyaano leh.
A prayer of David. Lord, please hear my cry for justice! Please pay attention to my call for help! Listen to the prayer of an honest man!
2 Xukunkaygu ha ka yimaado hortaada, Oo indhahaaguna caddaalad ha fiiriyeen.
Vindicate me before you—for you see what is right.
3 Qalbigayga waad tijaabisay, oo habeennimaad i soo booqatay, Waad i imtixaantay, oo wax shar ah igama aad helin, Waxaan u qasdiyey inaanu afkaygu xadgudbin.
You have observed my thoughts, you have visited me at night, you have examined me—and you have found nothing wrong. I promised myself I wouldn't say anything I shouldn't.
4 Shuqulladii dadkana waan ka hadhay, Oo erayada bushimahaaga ayaan kaga joogsaday jidadkii kuwa wax dulma oo dhan.
With regard to the actions of others: I have done what you told me and I have avoided what violent people do.
5 Si aanay cagahaygu u simbiriirixan, Tallaabooyinkayga ku adkee waddooyinkaaga.
I have not strayed from your path; my feet have not slipped from it.
6 Ilaahow, waan ku baryay, waayo, waad ii jawaabi doontaa, Bal dhegta ii dhig, oo hadalkayga maqal.
God, I call out to you because I know you will answer; please listen carefully to what I have to say.
7 Bal muuji raxmaddaada yaabka leh, Adigoo kuwa isku kaa halleeya gacantaada midig kaga badbaadiya Kuwa ku kaca iyaga.
Show me how wonderful your trustworthy love really is, Savior of those who come to you for protection against their enemies!
8 Ii dhawr sida isha inankeeda, Oo igu qari hooska baalashaada.
Keep me safe as someone you love; hide me underneath your wings.
9 Waxaad iga qarisaa kuwa sharka leh oo i kharriba, Kuwaas oo ah cadaawayaasha naftayda oo hareerahayga ku wareegsan.
Protect me from the attacks of the wicked who want to destroy me, from my enemies who surround me, intent on killing me.
10 Qalbigooday xidheen, Oo afkooduna wuxuu ku hadlaa waxyaalo kibir miidhan ah.
They have no compassion, and all they have to say is pure arrogance.
11 Oo haatan waxay cidhiidhiyeen tallaabooyinkayagii, Oo waxay noogu dhaygageen inay dhulka nagu tuuraan aawadeed.
They hunt me down and surround me, looking for the chance to knock me down in the dust.
12 Isagu waa sida aar libaax ugaadhsi damacsan, Iyo sida aaran libaax oo meelo qarsoon ku dhuunta.
They are like lions, longing to tear their prey apart; like fierce lions crouching in ambush.
13 Rabbiyow, kac, Oo isaga ka hor tag, oo dhulka hoos ugu tuur, Oo naftaydana kan sharka leh seeftaada kaga samatabbixi,
Lord, stand up and confront them! Force them to back down! By your sword rescue me from the wicked!
14 Rabbiyow, waxaad dadka igaga samatabbixisaa gacantaada, Kuwaas oo ah dadka dunida, oo qaybtoodu ku jirto nolosha adduunkan, Oo aad calooshooda ka buuxisaa khasnaddaada, Iyagu waxay ka dhergeen carruur, Oo maalkooda hadhayna waxay uga tagaan dhallaankooda.
Lord, by your power, save me from people whose only thought is for this world. May they be filled with what you have in store for them, their children too, with left-overs for their grandchildren!
15 Laakiinse anigu xaqnimaan wejigaaga ku fiirin doonaa, Oo waa i deeqi doonaa markii aan ammaantaada arko, oo aan ekaantaada la soo tooso.
As for me, I shall see your face in all its goodness. When I awake, I will be so pleased to see you face to face.
