1Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth, may Israel now say:
1Tan iyo yaraantaydii marar badan bay i dhibeen, Reer binu Israa'iil hadda ha yidhaahdeen,
2Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth: yet they have not prevailed against me.
2Tan iyo yaraantaydii marar badan bay i dhibeen, Laakiinse igama ay adkaan.
3The plowers plowed upon my back: they made long their furrows.
3Kuwa beerta jeexa ayaa dhabarkayga jeexay, Oo jeexjeexoodiina way dheereeyeen.
4The LORD is righteous: he hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked.
4Rabbigu waa xaq, Oo isagu wuxuu kala gooyay xadhkihii kuwa sharka leh.
5Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Zion.
5Inta Siyoon neceb oo dhammu, Ha ceeboobeen oo dib ha u noqdeen.
6Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, which withereth afore it groweth up:
6Ha noqdeen sida cawska guryaha korkooda ka baxa Oo engega intaanu korin,
7Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand; nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom.
7Oo aan beergooyuhu gacantiisa ka buuxin, Kan xidhmooyinka xidhaana aanu laabtiisa ka buuxin.Oo kuwa ag maraana ma yidhaahdaan, Barakadii Rabbigu korkiinna ha ahaato. Waxaan idiinku ducaynaynaa magaca Rabbiga.
8Neither do they which go by say, The blessing of the LORD be upon you: we bless you in the name of the LORD.
8Oo kuwa ag maraana ma yidhaahdaan, Barakadii Rabbigu korkiinna ha ahaato. Waxaan idiinku ducaynaynaa magaca Rabbiga.
