1A Song of the Ascents. Unto Thee I have lifted up mine eyes, O dweller in the heavens.
1Kaaga samooyinka dhex fadhiyow, Adigaan indhahayga kor kuugu taagaa.
2Lo, as eyes of men-servants [Are] unto the hand of their masters, As eyes of a maid-servant [Are] unto the hand of her mistress, So [are] our eyes unto Jehovah our God, Till that He doth favour us.
2Bal eeg, sida ay indhaha addoommadu u fiiriyaan gacanta sayidkooda, Iyo sida ay gabadh indhaheedu u fiiriyaan gacanta sayidaddeeda Ayay indhahayagu u fiiriyaan Rabbiga Ilaahayaga ah, Ilaa uu noo naxariisto.
3Favour us, O Jehovah, favour us, For greatly have we been filled with contempt,
3Rabbiyow, noo naxariiso, annaga noo naxariiso, Waayo, waxaa aad nooga buuxda quudhsasho.Naftayadii waxaa aad uga batay Qosolka kuwa istareexsan Iyo quudhsashadii kuwa kibirsan.
4Greatly hath our soul been filled With the scorning of the easy ones, With the contempt of the arrogant!
4Naftayadii waxaa aad uga batay Qosolka kuwa istareexsan Iyo quudhsashadii kuwa kibirsan.
