Sabuurradii 43

1 Ilaahow, ii gar soor, oo dacwadayda kala muddac quruun aan cibaado lahayn, Iga samatabbixi ninka khiyaanada badan oo xaqa daran.

God, declare that I (am innocent/have not done things that are wrong). Defend me when (ungodly people/people who do not worship you) say things against me, rescue me from people who deceive and [say things about me that are] not true.

2 Waayo, waxaad tahay Ilaaha xoogga ii ah, bal maxaad ii xoortay? Dulmiga cadowga daraaddiis bal maxaan ula sii cabaadaa?

You are God, the one who protects me; (why have you abandoned me?/it seems that you have abandoned me!) [RHQ] It does not seem right that [RHQ] I am forced to mourn/cry constantly because my enemies are cruel to me.

3 Nuurkaaga iyo runtaada ii soo dir, oo ha i hoggaamiyeen, Oo ha i keeneen buurtaada quduuska ah, iyo taambuugyadaada.

Shine your light on me and speak your truth to me; and let them guide me, and take me back to Zion, your sacred hill [at Jerusalem], and to [your temple], where you live.

4 Oo markaasaan tegi doonaa meesha allabariga Ilaah, Iyo Ilaaha ah farxaddayda weyn, Ilaahow, Ilaahaygiiyow, kataaradda waan kugu ammaani doonaa.

When you do that, I will go to your altar, to [worship you], my God, who causes me to be extremely joyful. There I will praise you, the God whom I [worship], while I play my harp.

5 Naftaydoy, bal maxaad u murugaysan tahay? Oo bal maxaad gudahayga ugu rabshaysan tahay? Ilaah ku kalsoonow, waayo, weli waxaan ammaanayaa Isagoo ah caawimaadda wejigayga iyo Ilaahay.

So (why am I sad and discouraged?/I should not be sad and discouraged!) [RHQ] I confidently expect God [to bless me], and I will praise him again, my God, the one who saves me.
