Sabuurradii 48

1 Rabbigu waa weyn yahay, waana in aad loogu ammaanaa Ilaaheenna magaaladiisa, iyo buurtiisa quduuska ah.

A Song, a Psalm, by sons of Korah. Great [is] Jehovah, and praised greatly, In the city of our God — His holy hill.

2 Waxaa dhererka ku quruxsan, oo farxad u ah dunida oo dhan Buur Siyoon oo dhanka woqooyi ah, Meeshaas oo ah magaalada Boqorka weyn.

Beautiful [for] elevation, A joy of all the land, [is] Mount Zion, The sides of the north, the city of a great king.

3 Ilaah wuxuu daaraheeda dhaadheer isku muujiyey inuu magangal yahay.

God in her high places is known for a tower.

4 Waayo, bal eeg, boqorradii way iswada urursadeen, Dhammaantood way wada dhaafeen.

For, lo, the kings met, they passed by together,

5 Oo kolkay arkeen ayay yaabeen, Oo argaggexeen, markaasay haddiiba carareen.

They have seen — so they have marvelled, They have been troubled, they were hastened away.

6 Iyagii halkaasay ku gariireen, Wayna ku xanuunsadeen sida naag foolanaysa.

Trembling hath seized them there, Pain, as of a travailing woman.

7 Doonniyaha Tarshiish waxaad ku jejebisaa Dabaysha bari.

By an east wind Thou shiverest ships of Tarshish.

8 Annagu sidaan maqalnay, ayaan ku dhex aragnay Magaalada Rabbiga ciidammada, taasoo ah magaalada Ilaaheenna, Ilaah ayaa weligeedba adkayn doona. (Selaah)

As we have heard, so we have seen, In the city of Jehovah of hosts, In the city of our God, God doth establish her — to the age. (Selah)

9 Ilaahow, raxmaddaada ayaan ka fikirnay Markaan macbudkaaga ku jirnay.

We have thought, O God, of Thy kindness, In the midst of Thy temple,

10 Ilaahow, sida magacaagu yahay Ayaa ammaantaaduna ku tahay dhulka darafyadiisa oo dhan, Gacantaada midigna waxaa ka buuxda xaqnimo.

As [is] Thy name, O God, so [is] Thy praise, Over the ends of the earth, Righteousness hath filled Thy right hand.

11 Buur Siyoon ha faraxdo, Oo gabdhaha reer Yahuudah ha ku reyreeyeen xukummadaada daraaddood.

Rejoice doth Mount Zion, The daughters of Judah are joyful, For the sake of Thy judgments.

12 Siyoon hareeraheeda socda, oo ku soo wareega, Oo munaaradaheeda tiriya.

Compass Zion, and go round her, count her towers,

13 Bal aad ugu fiirsada qalcadaheeda, Oo ka fikira daaraheeda dhaadheer, Si aad ugu sheekaysaan farcanka soo socda.

Set your heart to her bulwark, Consider her high places, So that ye recount to a later generation,

14 Waayo, weligiis iyo weligiisba Ilaahan ayaa Ilaah inoo ah, Oo isagaa hoggaamiye inoo ahaan doona xataa tan iyo dhimashada.

That this God [is] our God — To the age and for ever, He — he doth lead us over death!
