1Ilaahow, dhegahayagaannu ku maqallay, oo waxaa noo sheegay awowayaashayo Shuqulkii aad samaysay wakhtigoodii oo ahaa waa hore.
1To the Overseer. — By sons of Korah. An Instruction. O God, with our ears we have heard, Our fathers have recounted to us, The work Thou didst work in their days, In the days of old.
2Quruumihii gacantaadaad ku eriday, oo meeshoodii awowayaashayo baad ku beertay, Dadyowgii waad dhibtay, oo dibaddaad ku kala firdhisay.
2Thou, [with] Thy hand, nations hast dispossessed. And Thou dost plant them. Thou afflictest peoples, and sendest them away.
3Waayo, iyagu dalka kuma hantiyin seeftooda, Oo cududdooduna ma ay badbaadin, Laakiinse midigtaada iyo cududdaada iyo nuurka wejigaaga ayaa badbaadshay iyaga, Maxaa yeelay, raalli baad ka ahayd.
3For, not by their sword Possessed they the land, And their arm gave not salvation to them, But Thy right hand, and Thine arm, And the light of Thy countenance, Because Thou hadst accepted them.
4Ilaahow, waxaad tahay boqorkayga, Haddaba reer Yacquub samatabbixin u amar.
4Thou [art] He, my king, O God, Command the deliverances of Jacob.
5Adiga daraaddaa ayaannu cadaawayaashayada hoos ugu riixaynaa, Oo magacaaga daraaddiis ayaan kula tumanaynaa kuwa nagu kaca.
5By Thee our adversaries we do push, By Thy name tread down our withstanders,
6Waayo, qaansadayda isku hallayn maayo, Oo seeftayduna i badbaadin mayso.
6For, not in my bow do I trust, And my sword doth not save me.
7Laakiinse adigu cadaawayaashayadaad naga badbaadisay, Oo kuwa na necebna waad ceebaysay.
7For Thou hast saved us from our adversaries, And those hating us Thou hast put to shame.
8Maalinta oo dhan waxaannu ku faannaa Ilaah, Oo annana weligayo waxaannu ku mahad naqaynaa magacaaga. (Selaah)
8In God we have boasted all the day, And Thy name to the age we thank. Selah.
9Laakiinse haatan waad na xoortay, oo sharafdarrona waad nagu soo dejisay, Oo weliba ciidammadayadana ma aad hor kacdid.
9In anger Thou hast cast off and causest us to blush, And goest not forth with our hosts.
10Waxaa dib nooga celisaa cadowgayaga hortiisa, Oo kuwa na necebuna way na dhacaan.
10Thou causest us to turn backward from an adversary, And those hating us, Have spoiled for themselves.
11Waxaad naga dhigtay sidii ido la qalayo, Oo waxaad nagu kala firdhisay quruumaha dhexdooda.
11Thou makest us food like sheep, And among nations Thou hast scattered us.
12Dadkaaga qiimola'aan baad ku iibisaa, Oo maalkaagana kuma aad kordhin qiimahoodii.
12Thou sellest Thy people — without wealth, And hast not become great by their price.
13Deriskayaga waxaad nooga dhigtaa cay, Oo kuwa hareerahayaga ku wareegsanna waxaad nooga dhigtaa quudhsasho iyo qosol.
13Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, A scorn and a reproach to our surrounders.
14Quruumaha dhexdooda waxaad nooga dhigtaa halqabsi, Dadyowga dhexdoodana waxaad nooga dhigtaa kuwa madaxa laga lulo.
14Thou makest us a simile among nations, A shaking of the head among peoples.
15Maalinta oo dhan sharafdarradaydu way i hor taal, Oo waxaa iga muuqatay ceebtii wejigayga,
15All the day my confusion [is] before me, And the shame of my face hath covered me.
16Waayo, sababtu waxaa weeye codka kan i caaya oo i af xumeeya, Iyo cadowga iyo kan iga aarguta daraaddood.
16Because of the voice of a reproacher and reviler, Because of an enemy and a self-avenger.
17Waxyaalahaas oo dhammu way nagu dhaceen, laakiinse weli kuma aannu illoobin, Axdigaagana khiyaano kuma aannu samayn.
17All this met us, and we did not forget Thee, Nor have we dealt falsely in Thy covenant.
18Qalbigayagu dib uma noqon, Oo tallaabooyinkayaguna jidkaaga kama baydhin,
18We turn not backward our heart, Nor turn aside doth our step from Thy path.
19Adiguse waxaad si xun noogu jebisay meeshii dawacooyinka, Oo waxaad nagu qarisay hooskii dhimashada.
19But Thou hast smitten us in a place of dragons, And dost cover us over with death-shade.
20Haddii aannu illownay magicii Ilaahayaga, Ama aannu gacmahayaga u kala bixinnay ilaah qalaad,
20If we have forgotten the name of our God, And spread our hands to a strange God,
21Ilaah miyaanu waxaas baadhayn? Waayo, isagu waa wada og yahay qalbiga waxyaalihiisa qarsoon.
21Doth not God search out this? For He knoweth the secrets of the heart.
22Haah, oo adiga daraaddaa ayaa naloo laayaa maalinta oo dhan, Oo waxaannu noqonnaa sida ido la qalayo.
22Surely, for Thy sake we have been slain all the day, Reckoned as sheep of the slaughter.
23Toos, maxaad u huruddaa, Sayidow? Sara joogso, oo ha na xoorin weligaa.
23Stir up — why dost Thou sleep, O Lord? Awake, cast us not off for ever.
24Bal maxaad wejiga nooga qarsanaysaa, Oo aad u illoobaysaa dhibaatada iyo dulmiga aan ku dhex jirno?
24Why Thy face hidest Thou? Thou forgettest our afflictions and our oppression,
25Waayo, naftayadu ciidday ku foororsatay, Oo calooshayaduna dhulkay ku dhegtaa.Caawimaaddayada daraaddeed u sara joogso, Oo raxmaddaada daraaddeed noo furo.
25For bowed to the dust hath our soul, Cleaved to the earth hath our belly.
26Caawimaaddayada daraaddeed u sara joogso, Oo raxmaddaada daraaddeed noo furo.
26Arise, a help to us, And ransom us for thy kindness` sake.
