¹To the Overseer. — A Psalm of David. O the happiness of him Who is acting wisely unto the poor, In a day of evil doth Jehovah deliver him.

¹Waxaa barakaysan kii ka fikira miskiinka, Maalinta shar jiro Rabbigu waa samatabbixin doonaa isaga.

²Jehovah doth preserve him and revive him, He is happy in the land, And Thou givest him not into the will of his enemies.

²Rabbigu wuu dhawri doonaa, wuuna sii noolayn doonaa, oo isaguna dhulkuu ku barakaysnaan doonaa. Rabbow, isaga ha u gacangelin sida cadaawayaashiisu rabaan.

³Jehovah supporteth on a couch of sickness, All his bed Thou hast turned in his weakness.

³Rabbigu wuxuu isaga ku gargaari doonaa sariirta taagdarradiisa. Oo markuu bukana sariirtiisa oo dhan waad u hagaajisaa.

⁴I — I said, `O Jehovah, favour me, Heal my soul, for I did sin against Thee,`

⁴Anigu waxaan idhi, Rabbiyow, ii naxariiso, Oo naftayda bogsii, waayo, waan kugu dembaabay.

⁵Mine enemies say evil of me: When he dieth — his name hath perished!

⁵Cadaawayaashaydu shar bay iga sheegaan, oo waxay yidhaahdaan, War goormuu dhiman doonaa, oo magiciisu baabbi'i doonaa?

⁶And if he came to see — vanity he speaketh, His heart gathereth iniquity to itself, He goeth out — at the street he speaketh.

⁶Oo midkood hadduu i soo booqdona been buu ku hadlaa, Oo qalbigiisuna xumaatuu urursadaa; oo markuu dibadda u baxo ayuu ka warramaa.

⁷All hating me whisper together against me, Against me they devise evil to me:

⁷Kuwa i neceb oo dhammu anigay ii wada faqaan, Oo waxay iigu wada tashadaan si ay wax ii yeelaan.

⁸A thing of Belial is poured out on him, And because he lay down he riseth not again.

⁸Waxay yidhaahdaan, Cudur xun baa isagii ku dhacay, Oo haatan wuu jiifaa, mar dambena sooma uu kici doono.

⁹Even mine ally, in whom I trusted, One eating my bread, made great the heel against me,

⁹Xataa saaxiibkaygii aan isku halleeyey, oo kibistaydii cunay, Ayaa cedhibtiisa ii qaaday.

¹⁰And Thou, Jehovah, favour me, And cause me to rise, And I give recompence to them.

¹⁰Laakiinse, Rabbiyow, ii naxariiso, oo mar i sara jooji, Aan iyaga ka aar goostee.

¹¹By this I have known, That Thou hast delighted in me, Because my enemy shouteth not over me.

¹¹Tan ayaan ku garanayaa inaad igu faraxsan tahay, Maxaa yeelay, cadowgaygu igama guulaysto.

¹²As to me, in mine integrity, Thou hast taken hold upon me, And causest me to stand before Thee to the age.

¹²Laakiinse aniga waxaad ii tiirisaa daacadnimadayda aawadeed, Oo weligaaba waxaad i fadhiisisaa wejigaaga hortiisa.Weligiis iyo weligiisba Waxaa mahad leh Rabbiga ah Ilaaha Israa'iil. Aamiin iyo Aamiin.

¹³Blessed [is] Jehovah, God of Israel, From the age — and unto the age. Amen and Amen.

¹³Weligiis iyo weligiisba Waxaa mahad leh Rabbiga ah Ilaaha Israa'iil. Aamiin iyo Aamiin.
