Sabuurradii 20

1 Rabbigu ha kuu jawaabo maalinta dhibta, Ilaaha Yacquub magiciisu meel sare ha ku taago,

“To the chief musician, a psalm of David.” May the Lord answer thee on the day of distress; may the name of the God of Jacob protect thee;

2 Caawimaadna ha kaaga soo diro meesha quduuska ah, Oo Siyoonna ha kaa xoogeeyo,

May he send thee help from the sanctuary, and support thee from Zion;

3 Ha xusuusto qurbaannadaadii oo dhan, Oo ha aqbalo allabarigaagii gubnaa, (Selaah)

May he remember all thy meat-offerings, and accept in favor thy burnt-sacrifice. (Selah)

4 Oo ha ku siiyo waxa qalbigaagu doono, Oo ha kuu yeelo muraadkaaga oo dhan.

May he grant thee according to thy own heart, and fulfill all thy resolves.

5 Innagu waxaynu ku guulaysanaynaa badbaadintaada, Oo calammadeennana waxaynu ku sudhaynaa magaca Ilaaheenna, Rabbigu ha ku siiyo waxaad weyddiisato oo dhan.

We will rejoice in thy salvation, and in the name of our God will we upraise our banners: may the Lord fulfill all thy petitions.

6 Anigu hadda waan ogahay in Rabbigu badbaadiyo kii uu isagu subkaday, Oo wuxuu isaga uga soo jawaabi doonaa samadiisa quduuska ah, Oo wuxuuna ugu jawaabi doonaa xooggiisa wax badbaadiya oo gacantiisa midig.

Now I know that the Lord saveth his anointed: he will answer him from his holy heavens, with the saving strength of his right hand.

7 Qaar waxay isku halleeyaan gaadhifardoodyo, qaarna waxay isku halleeyaan fardo, Laakiinse innagu waxaynu xusuusanaynaa magaca Rabbiga Ilaaheenna ah.

Some [trust] in chariots, and some in horses; but we will invoke the name of the Lord our God.

8 Iyagu way foororsadeen, wayna dheceen, Laakiinse innagu waynu kacnay, oo waynu taagan nahay.

They are prostrate and fallen; but we are risen up and stand erect.

9 Rabbiyow, ina badbaadi, Oo Boqorku ha inoo jawaabo markii aynu u qayshanno.

O Lord, save [us]: may the king answer us on the day when we call [on him].
