Sabuurradii 54

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

For the Chief Musician. On stringed instruments. A contemplation by David, when the Ziphites came and said to Saul, “Isn’t David hiding himself amongst us?” Save me, God, by your name. Vindicate me in your might.

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

Hear my prayer, God. Listen 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 strangers have risen up against me. Violent men have sought after my soul. They haven’t set God before them. (Selah)

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

Behold, God is my helper. The Lord is the one who sustains my soul.

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

He will repay the evil to my enemies. Destroy them in your truth.

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

With a free will offering, I will sacrifice to you. I will give thanks to your name, LORD, for it is good.

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

For he has delivered me out of all trouble. My eye has seen triumph over my enemies.
