Sabuurradii 48
1 Rabbigu waa weyn yahay, waana in aad loogu ammaanaa Ilaaheenna magaaladiisa, iyo buurtiisa quduuska ah.
For the music director. A psalm of the sons of Korah. The Lord is supreme! He deserves praise in the city of our God on his holy mountain.
2 Waxaa dhererka ku quruxsan, oo farxad u ah dunida oo dhan Buur Siyoon oo dhanka woqooyi ah, Meeshaas oo ah magaalada Boqorka weyn.
Mount Zion is high and beautiful, bringing happiness to all the earth; on the northern side is the city of the great King.
3 Ilaah wuxuu daaraheeda dhaadheer isku muujiyey inuu magangal yahay.
God himself is in the city's fortresses; he is recognized as its defender.
4 Waayo, bal eeg, boqorradii way iswada urursadeen, Dhammaantood way wada dhaafeen.
Look at what happened when foreign kings joined forces and came to attack the city.
5 Oo kolkay arkeen ayay yaabeen, Oo argaggexeen, markaasay haddiiba carareen.
As soon as they saw it they were astonished and ran away terrified.
6 Iyagii halkaasay ku gariireen, Wayna ku xanuunsadeen sida naag foolanaysa.
They shook all over, and were in agonizing pain like a woman giving birth,
7 Doonniyaha Tarshiish waxaad ku jejebisaa Dabaysha bari.
just as the strong east wind wrecks the ships from Tarshish.
8 Annagu sidaan maqalnay, ayaan ku dhex aragnay Magaalada Rabbiga ciidammada, taasoo ah magaalada Ilaaheenna, Ilaah ayaa weligeedba adkayn doona. (Selaah)
Just as we had heard, but now we have seen the city of the Lord Almighty. This is the city of our God; he makes it secure forever. (Selah)
9 Ilaahow, raxmaddaada ayaan ka fikirnay Markaan macbudkaaga ku jirnay.
God, we recall your trustworthy love as we worship in the Temple.
10 Ilaahow, sida magacaagu yahay Ayaa ammaantaaduna ku tahay dhulka darafyadiisa oo dhan, Gacantaada midigna waxaa ka buuxda xaqnimo.
As is fitting for your reputation, God, praises to you stretch all around the world. What you do is always right!
11 Buur Siyoon ha faraxdo, Oo gabdhaha reer Yahuudah ha ku reyreeyeen xukummadaada daraaddood.
Let the people of Mount Zion be glad; let the people of Judah celebrate because your judgments are always fair!
12 Siyoon hareeraheeda socda, oo ku soo wareega, Oo munaaradaheeda tiriya.
Go and take a look at Zion. Count the towers as you walk around.
13 Bal aad ugu fiirsada qalcadaheeda, Oo ka fikira daaraheeda dhaadheer, Si aad ugu sheekaysaan farcanka soo socda.
Inspect the fortifications. Examine the citadels, so you can describe everything to the next generation, telling them:
14 Waayo, weligiis iyo weligiisba Ilaahan ayaa Ilaah inoo ah, Oo isagaa hoggaamiye inoo ahaan doona xataa tan iyo dhimashada.
“This is who our God is. He is our God forever and ever. He himself will lead us until the very end.”
