¹Hear, Yahweh, my righteous plea; Give ear to my prayer, that doesn’t go out of deceitful lips.

¹Rabbiyow, xaqa maqal, oo qayladayda u jeeso, Oo baryadayda dhegta u dhig, taasoo aan ka bixin bushimo khiyaano leh.

²Let my sentence come forth from your presence. Let your eyes look on equity.

²Xukunkaygu ha ka yimaado hortaada, Oo indhahaaguna caddaalad ha fiiriyeen.

³You have proved my heart. You have visited me in the night. You have tried me, and found nothing. I have resolved that my mouth shall not disobey.

³Qalbigayga waad tijaabisay, oo habeennimaad i soo booqatay, Waad i imtixaantay, oo wax shar ah igama aad helin, Waxaan u qasdiyey inaanu afkaygu xadgudbin.

⁴As for the works of men, by the word of your lips, I have kept myself from the ways of the violent.

⁴Shuqulladii dadkana waan ka hadhay, Oo erayada bushimahaaga ayaan kaga joogsaday jidadkii kuwa wax dulma oo dhan.

⁵My steps have held fast to your paths. My feet have not slipped.

⁵Si aanay cagahaygu u simbiriirixan, Tallaabooyinkayga ku adkee waddooyinkaaga.

⁶I have called on you, for you will answer me, God. Turn your ear to me. Hear my speech.

⁶Ilaahow, waan ku baryay, waayo, waad ii jawaabi doontaa, Bal dhegta ii dhig, oo hadalkayga maqal.

⁷Show your marvelous loving kindness, you who save those who take refuge by your right hand from their enemies.

⁷Bal muuji raxmaddaada yaabka leh, Adigoo kuwa isku kaa halleeya gacantaada midig kaga badbaadiya Kuwa ku kaca iyaga.

⁸Keep me as the apple of your eye. Hide me under the shadow of your wings,

⁸Ii dhawr sida isha inankeeda, Oo igu qari hooska baalashaada.

⁹from the wicked who oppress me, my deadly enemies, who surround me.

⁹Waxaad iga qarisaa kuwa sharka leh oo i kharriba, Kuwaas oo ah cadaawayaasha naftayda oo hareerahayga ku wareegsan.

¹⁰They close up their callous hearts. With their mouth they speak proudly.

¹⁰Qalbigooday xidheen, Oo afkooduna wuxuu ku hadlaa waxyaalo kibir miidhan ah.

¹¹They have now surrounded us in our steps. They set their eyes to cast us down to the earth.

¹¹Oo haatan waxay cidhiidhiyeen tallaabooyinkayagii, Oo waxay noogu dhaygageen inay dhulka nagu tuuraan aawadeed.

¹²He is like a lion that is greedy of his prey, as it were a young lion lurking in secret places.

¹²Isagu waa sida aar libaax ugaadhsi damacsan, Iyo sida aaran libaax oo meelo qarsoon ku dhuunta.

¹³Arise, Yahweh, confront him. Cast him down. Deliver my soul from the wicked by your sword;

¹³Rabbiyow, kac, Oo isaga ka hor tag, oo dhulka hoos ugu tuur, Oo naftaydana kan sharka leh seeftaada kaga samatabbixi,

¹⁴from men by your hand, Yahweh, from men of the world, whose portion is in this life. You fill the belly of your cherished ones. Your sons have plenty, and they store up wealth for their children.

¹⁴Rabbiyow, waxaad dadka igaga samatabbixisaa gacantaada, Kuwaas oo ah dadka dunida, oo qaybtoodu ku jirto nolosha adduunkan, Oo aad calooshooda ka buuxisaa khasnaddaada, Iyagu waxay ka dhergeen carruur, Oo maalkooda hadhayna waxay uga tagaan dhallaankooda.Laakiinse anigu xaqnimaan wejigaaga ku fiirin doonaa, Oo waa i deeqi doonaa markii aan ammaantaada arko, oo aan ekaantaada la soo tooso.

¹⁵As for me, I shall see your face in righteousness. I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with seeing your form.

¹⁵Laakiinse anigu xaqnimaan wejigaaga ku fiirin doonaa, Oo waa i deeqi doonaa markii aan ammaantaada arko, oo aan ekaantaada la soo tooso.
