Sabuurradii 54

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

To the Overseer with stringed instruments. — An instruction, by David, in the coming in of the Ziphim, and they say to Saul, 'Is not David hiding himself with us?' O God, by Thy name save me, and by Thy might judge me.

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

O God, hear my prayer, Give ear to the sayings 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 And terrible ones have sought my soul, They have not set God before them. (Selah)

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

Lo, God [is] a helper to me, The Lord [is] with those supporting my soul,

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

Turn back doth the evil thing to mine enemies, In Thy truth cut them off.

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

With a free will-offering I sacrifice to Thee, I thank Thy name, O Jehovah, for [it is] good,

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

For, from all adversity He delivered me, And on mine enemies hath mine eye looked!
