Sabuurradii 54

1 Ilaahow, magacaaga igu badbaadi, Oo xooggaaga iigu garsoor.

For the leader. With stringed instruments. A maskil of David, when the Ziphites came and said to Saul, “David is in hiding among us”. Save me, O God, by your name, by your power secure for me justice.

2 Ilaahow, baryadayda maqal, Oo erayada afkayga dhegta u dhig,

Listen, O God, to my prayer, attend to the words of my mouth.

3 Waayo, shisheeyayaal baa igu kacay, Oo rag dulmi badan ayaa doonayay inay nafta iga qaadaan, Iyagu Ilaah kama fikirin. (Selaah)

For proud men have risen against me, and terrible men seek my life, men who do not set God before them. (Selah)

4 Bal eega, Ilaah waa gargaarahayga, Oo Sayidkuna wuxuu la jiraa kuwa naftayda tiiriya.

But see! God is my helper, the Lord is sustaining my life.

5 Isagu sharka wuxuu ku celin doonaa cadaawayaashayda, Iyaga runtaada ku baabbi'i.

Let their evil fall back on my foes: cut them off in your faithfulness, Lord.

6 Waxaan kuu qali doonaa qurbaan ikhtiyaar ah, Rabbiyow, magacaaga waan ku mahadnaqi doonaa, waayo wuu wanaagsan yahay.

Then will I bring you glad sacrifice, praising your gracious name;

7 Waayo, isagu wuxuu iga samatabbixiyey dhibaato oo dhan, Oo ishayduna waxay cadaawayaashayda ku aragtay wixii aan doonayay.

for from all distress you have saved me, and feasted my eyes on my foes.
