¹God, the nations have come into your inheritance. They have defiled your holy temple. They have laid Jerusalem in heaps.

¹ Asaf baytu fo no. Ya Irikoy, dumi cindey furo ni laabo ra, I na ni fu hananta ziibandi, I na Urusalima zeeri ka te kurmu.

²They have given the dead bodies of your servants to be food for the birds of the sky, the flesh of your saints to the animals of the earth.

² I na ni tam buukoy nooyandi beene curey se i ma ŋwa, Ni hanantey hamey mo, i n'i no ndunnya ganji hamey se.

³Their blood they have shed like water around Jerusalem. There was no one to bury them.

³ I n'i kurey mun sanda hari cine Urusalima windanta, Fijiko si no mo.

⁴We have become a reproach to our neighbors, a scoffing and derision to those who are around us.

⁴ Iri ciya haawi hari iri gorokasiney se, Donda-caray da hahaarayaŋ hari mo borey kaŋ yaŋ goono g'iri windi se.

⁵How long, Yahweh? Will you be angry forever? Will your jealousy burn like fire?

⁵ Ya Rabbi, waati fo no a ga ban? Ni ga soobay ka futu hal abada no? Ni cansa ga soobay ka ŋwa no sanda danji cine?

⁶Pour out your wrath on the nations that don’t know you; on the kingdoms that don’t call on your name;

⁶ Ma ni futay korna gusam dumi cindey kaŋ si ni bay boŋ. Mayrayey boŋ mo koyne kaŋ siino ga ni maa ce.

⁷For they have devoured Jacob, and destroyed his homeland.

⁷ Zama i na Yakuba ŋwa ka ban, I n'a nangora ciya kurmu mo.

⁸Don’t hold the iniquities of our forefathers against us. Let your tender mercies speedily meet us, for we are in desperate need.

⁸ Ma si fongu iri kaayey taaley gaa k'i dake iri boŋ mo. Ma naŋ ni bakarawo ma waasu ka kaa k'iri kubay, Zama iri di kayna gumo.

⁹Help us, God of our salvation, for the glory of your name. Deliver us, and forgive our sins, for your name’s sake.

⁹ Ya iri faaba Irikoyo, m'iri gaa ni maa darza sabbay se. M'iri kaa kambe, m'iri zunubey yaafa mo, Ni maa wo sabbay se.

¹⁰Why should the nations say, “Where is their God?” Let it be known among the nations, before our eyes, that vengeance for your servants’ blood is being poured out.

¹⁰ Ifo se no dumi cindey ga ne: «Man no i Irikoyo go me?» Ni tamey kurey kaŋ i mun din, I ma bay a fansa banayaŋo gaa ndunnya dumi cindey ra iri jine.

¹¹Let the sighing of the prisoner come before you. According to the greatness of your power, preserve those who are sentenced to death.

¹¹ Hawantey durayyaŋo ma to ni do. Ni hino beera boŋ ni ma borey kaŋ yaŋ i suuban buuyaŋ se din hallasi.

¹²Pay back to our neighbors seven times into their bosom their reproach with which they have reproached you, Lord.

¹² Ya ay Koyo, wowo kaŋ iri gorokasiney na ni wow d'a din, M'a yeti i se i gandey ra hala labu-care iyye.

¹³So we, your people and sheep of your pasture, will give you thanks forever. We will praise you forever, to all generations.

¹³ Yaadin gaa no iri, ni borey, Kaŋ ga ti ni kuray nango feejey, Iri ga saabu ni se hal abada. Iri ga ni sifayaŋo cabe zamaney kulu se.
