¹Didst Thou not rend the heavens? Thou didst come down, From thy presence did mountains flow,

¹Maad samooyinka soo jeexdid, oo maad hoos u soo dhaadhacdid, si ay buuruhu hortaada uga gariiraan

²(As fire kindleth stubble — Fire causeth water to boil,) To make known Thy name to Thine adversaries, From Thy presence do nations tremble.

²sida dab xaabo uu u gubo oo uu biyahana u karkariyo, in magacaaga cadaawayaashaada la ogeysiiyo, iyo in quruumuhu ay hortaada ku gariiraan!

³In Thy doing fearful things — we expect not, Thou didst come down, From Thy presence did mountains flow.

³Markaad waxyaalo cabsi badan oo aannan filanayn samaysay, hoos baad u soo dhaadhacday, oo buurihiina hortaaday ku gariireen.

⁴Even from antiquity [men] have not heard, They have not given ear, Eye hath not seen a God save Thee, He doth work for those waiting for Him.

⁴Tan iyo waa hore ninna ma garan, dheguna ma maqal, iluna ma arag Ilaah aan adiga ahayn oo u shaqeeya kan isaga wax ka suga.

⁵Thou hast met with the rejoicer And the doer of righteousness, In Thy ways they remember Thee, Lo, Thou hast been wroth when we sin, By them [is] continuance, and we are saved.

⁵Kan isagoo faraxsan xaqnimo sameeya, iyo kuwa jidadkaaga kugu xusuusta waad la kulantaa. Waad cadhaysnayd, waannuna dembaabnay. Dembiyadaas wakhti dheer baannu ku sii soconnay, haddaba ma nala badbaadin doonaa?

⁶And we are as unclean — all of us, And as a garment passing away, all our righteous acts; And we fade as a leaf — all of us. And our iniquities as wind do take us away.

⁶Waayo, kulligayo waxaannu noqonnay sida wax aan nadiif ahayn, oo xaqnimadayada oo dhammuna waa sida dhar wasakh ah, kulligayona waxaannu u engegnay sida caleen oo kale, oo xumaantayadiina sidii dabayl oo kale ayay noo kaxaysataa.

⁷And there is none calling in Thy name, Stirring up himself to lay hold on Thee, For Thou hast hid Thy face from us, And thou meltest us away by our iniquities.

⁷Oo innaba lama arko mid magacaaga ku baryootama, ama niyadiisa u kiciya inuu ku xagsado, waayo, wejigaagii waad naga qarisay, oo xumaatooyinkayagii aawadood waad na wada baabbi'isay.

⁸And now, O Jehovah, thou [art] our Father, We [are] the clay, and Thou our Framer, And the work of Thy hand — all of us.

⁸Laakiinse haatan, Rabbiyow, waxaad tahay Aabbahayaga. Annagu waxaannu nahay dhoobadii, oo adiguna dheryasameeyahayaga baad tahay, oo annana kulligayo shuqulkii gacantaada baannu nahay.

⁹Be not wroth, O Jehovah, very sore, Nor for ever remember iniquity, Lo, look attentively, we beseech Thee, Thy people [are] we all.

⁹Rabbiyow, aad ha u cadhoon, oo xumaantana ilaa weligaa ha sii xusuusan. Bal eeg, oo na fiiri, waan ku baryaynaaye, waayo, kulligayo dadkaaga baannu nahay.

¹⁰Thy holy cities have been a wilderness, Zion a wilderness hath been, Jerusalem a desolation.

¹⁰Magaalooyinkaagii quduuska ahaa cidlo bay noqdeen, Siyoon waxay noqotay cidlo oo kale, Yeruusaalemna waxay noqotay meel baabba' ah.

¹¹Our holy and our beautiful house, Where praise Thee did our fathers, Hath become burnt with fire, And all our desirable things have become a waste.

¹¹Gurigayagii quduuska ahaa oo qurxoonaa oo ahaa meeshii ay awowayaashayo kugu ammaani jireen dab baa lagu gubay, oo waxyaalahayagii wanwanaagsanaa oo dhanna waa la wada baabbi'iyey.Rabbiyow, waxyaalahaas aawadood ma isu celinaysaa? Ma iska aamusaysaa, oo ma aad baad noo sii dhibaysaa?

¹²For these dost Thou refrain Thyself, Jehovah? Thou art silent, and dost afflict us very sore!`

¹²Rabbiyow, waxyaalahaas aawadood ma isu celinaysaa? Ma iska aamusaysaa, oo ma aad baad noo sii dhibaysaa?
