Sabuurradii 94
1 Rabbiyow, Ilaaha aargudashada lahow, Ilaaha aargudashada lahow, soo iftiin.
Yahweh, you are able to get revenge [on your enemies]. [So] show them that you are going to punish them!
2 Xaakinka dunidow, sara joogso, Oo kuwa kibray abaalkooda mari.
You are the one who judges all [people on] the earth; [so] arise, and give/punish the proud [leaders of our] people like they deserve.
3 Rabbiyow, kuwa sharka lahu ilaa goormay, Kuwa sharka lahu ilaa goormay guulaysanayaan?
Yahweh, how long will those wicked [people] be glad/happy? It is not right that [RHQ] they continue being glad!
4 Way bulxamaan, oo kibir bay ku hadlaan, Oo xumaanfalayaasha oo dhammu way faanaan.
They do evil things, and they boast about doing them; how long will they [be allowed to] continue doing that?
5 Rabbiyow, iyagu waxay burburiyaan dadkaaga, Oo dhaxalkaagay silciyaan.
Yahweh, [it is as though] those wicked people crush [us], your people; they (oppress/treat cruelly) those who belong to you [DOU].
6 Carmalka iyo shisheeyaha ayay laayaan, Oo agoontay nafta ka qaadaan.
They murder widows and orphans and people from other countries who [think it is safe to] live in our land.
7 Oo waxay isyidhaahdaan, Waxan Rabbigu ma arki doono, Oo Ilaaha reer Yacquubna kama fikiri doono.
Those wicked people say, “Yahweh does not see anything; [so] the God whom those Israelis [worship] does not see [the evil things that we do].”
8 Kuwiinna doqonnada ah oo dadka ku dhex jirow, fiirsada, Oo kuwiinna nacasyada ahow, goormaad caqli yeelanaysaan?
You evil people [who rule Israel], you are foolish and stupid; when will you become wise [RHQ]?
9 Kii dhegta abuuray, sow wax maqli maayo? Kii isha sameeyeyna, sow wax arki maayo?
God made our ears; so [do you think that] he cannot hear [what you say] [RHQ]? He created our eyes; so do you think that he cannot see [the evil things that you do] [RHQ]?
10 Kan quruumaha edbiyaa, sow wax hagaajin maayo? Kaasoo ah kan dadka aqoonta bara?
He also scolds [the leaders of other] nations; so do you think that he will not punish [you] [RHQ]? He is the one who knows everything; [so why do you think that he does not know what you do] [RHQ]?
11 Rabbigu waa og yahay fikirrada binu-aadmigu Inay micnela'aan yihiin.
Yahweh knows [everything] that people are thinking; he knows that what they think ([is useless/vanishes as quickly as]) smoke [MET].
12 Rabbiyow, waxaa barakaysan ninkii aad edbiso, Oo aad sharcigaaga wax ka barto,
Yahweh, you are pleased with people who [want you to] discipline/correct them, those who [want you to] teach them your laws.
13 Si aad uga nasiso maalmaha belaayada Inta kan sharka lahaa godka loo qodayo.
When those people have had troubles, you cause those troubles to cease, and some day [it will be as though] you will dig pits for wicked people, and they will fall into those pits [and die].
14 Waayo, Rabbigu dadkiisa xoori maayo, Oo dhaxalkiisana dayrin maayo.
Yahweh will not abandon his people; he will not desert like that those who belong to him [DOU].
15 Waayo, garsooriddu waxay ku soo noqon doontaa xaqnimada, Oo inta qalbigoodu qumman yahay oo dhammuna way raaci doonaan.
[Some day] judges will decide matters fairly for people, and all honest/righteous people will be pleased about that.
16 Bal yaa ii kacaya oo sharfalayaasha iga hor joogsanaya? Oo yaa ii soo istaagaya oo xumaanfalayaasha iga celinaya?
But when wicked [people] ([oppressed me/treated me cruelly]), (who defended me?/no one defended me.) [RHQ] No one stood up to testify for me against those evil people [RHQ].
17 Rabbigu haddaanu i caawin, Hadda naftaydu waxay joogi lahayd meesha aamusnaanta.
If Yahweh had not helped me [at that time], [I would have been executed], [and] my soul/spirit would have gone to the place where [dead people] say nothing.
18 Markaan idhi, Rabbiyow, cagtaydu waa simbiriirixanaysaa, Waxaa kor ii qaadday naxariistaada.
I said/thought [to myself], “I am about to die,” but Yahweh, you held me up by faithfully loving me.
19 Kolkay fikirro badan igu dhex jiraan Waxaa naftayda ka farxiya qalbiqaboojintaada.
Whenever I am very worried, you comfort/encourage me and cause me to be happy.
20 Carshiga sharnimadu ma xidhiidh buu kula yeelanayaa, Kaasoo belaayo qaynuun ku qabanqaabiya?
You have nothing to do with wicked judges, who establish laws that allow people to do what is not legal.
21 Waxay dhammaantood isu soo wada urursadaan kan xaqa ah naftiisa, Oo waxay xukumaan dhiig aan eed lahayn.
They plan to get rid of righteous [people], and they declare that (innocent people/people who have not done what is wrong) must be executed.
22 Laakiinse Rabbigu waxa weeye munaaraddayda, Ilaahayna waa dhagaxii magangalkayga.
But Yahweh (has become [like] my fortress/protects me) [MET]; my God is [like a huge] rock under which I am protected/safe [MET].
23 Oo wuxuu dushooda ku soo celiyey xumaatadoodii, Oo wuxuu iyaga ku dhex baabbi'in doonaa sharnimadooda, Rabbiga Ilaaheenna ahu wuu wada baabbi'in doonaa.
He will punish those wicked leaders in return for the wicked things that they have done, and will get rid of them for the sins that they have committed; [yes], Yahweh our God will (wipe them out/destroy them completely).
