¹God, don’t keep silent. Don’t keep silent, and don’t be still, God.

¹Ilaahow, shib ha odhan, Oo ha aamusin, afkana ha haysan, Ilaahow.

²For, behold, your enemies are stirred up. Those who hate you have lifted up their heads.

²Waayo, bal eeg, cadaawayaashaadu way buuqaan, Oo kuwii ku nebcaana madaxay kor u qaadeen.

³They conspire with cunning against your people. They plot against your cherished ones.

³Dadkaagay xeelad ugu tashadaan, Oo waxay dhammaantood u arrinsadaan kuwaad qarisay.

⁴“Come,” they say, “and let’s destroy them as a nation, that the name of Israel may be remembered no more.”

⁴Waxay isku yidhaahdeen, Kaalaya, aan baabbi'innee, yaanay mar dambe quruun ahaanine. Si aan magaca Israa'iil dib loogu soo xusuusan.

⁵For they have conspired together with one mind. They form an alliance against you.

⁵Waayo, iyagoo isku waafaqsan ayay ku arrinsadeen, Oo axdi kaa gees ah ayay isla dhigtaan,

⁶The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab, and the Hagrites;

⁶Teendhooyinkii reer Edom iyo reer Ismaaciil, Iyo reer Moo'aab iyo reer Hagariim,

⁷Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek; Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre;

⁷Reer Gebal iyo reer Cammoon iyo reer Camaaleq, Reer Falastiin iyo kuwii Turos degganaa,

⁸Assyria also is joined with them. They have helped the children of Lot. Selah.

⁸Oo xataa reer Ashuurna way ku darsameen, Oo waxay kaalmeeyeen ilma Luud. (Selaah)

⁹Do to them as you did to Midian, as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the river Kishon;

⁹Iyaga ku samee wixii aad ku samaysay reer Midyaan, Iyo Siiseraa iyo Yaabiin markii ay ag joogeen Webi Qiishoon,

¹⁰who perished at Endor, who became as dung for the earth.

¹⁰Waxay ku halligmeen Ceyn Door, Oo waxay dhulka u noqdeen digo.

¹¹Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb; yes, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna;

¹¹Nimankooda gobta ah oo dhan waxaad ka dhigtaa sida Cooreeb iyo Se'eeb, Oo amiirradooda oo dhanna sida Sebah iyo Salmunnac,

¹²Kuwaas oo isyidhi, War aan iska qaadanno oo hantinno Ilaah degmooyinkiisa.

¹³My God, make them like tumbleweed; like chaff before the wind.

¹³Ilaahayow, iyaga ka dhig sida boodhka warwareega, Iyo sida xaab dabaysha ka horreeya,

¹⁴As the fire that burns the forest, as the flame that sets the mountains on fire,

¹⁴Sida dabka duurka guba, Iyo sida ololka buuraha huriya,

¹⁵so pursue them with your tempest, and terrify them with your storm.

¹⁵Sidaasoo kale iyaga duufaankaaga ku eri, Hufadaadana ku cabsii.

¹⁶Fill their faces with confusion, that they may seek your name, Yahweh.

¹⁶Rabbiyow, wejigoodu wareer ha ka buuxsamo, Si ay magacaaga u doondoonaan.

¹⁷Let them be disappointed and dismayed forever. Yes, let them be confounded and perish;

¹⁷Weligood ha ceeboobeen, hana baqeen, Ha wareereen, hana baabbe'een,Si ay u ogaadaan in adigoo magacaagu Ilaah yahay Aad tahay Ilaaha ugu sarreeya dunida oo dhan.

¹⁸that they may know that you alone, whose name is Yahweh, are the Most High over all the earth.

¹⁸Si ay u ogaadaan in adigoo magacaagu Ilaah yahay Aad tahay Ilaaha ugu sarreeya dunida oo dhan.
