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

¹ Dooni. Asaf baytu fo no.

¹A song. A Psalm of Asaph. O God, keep not thou silence: Hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.

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

² Ya Irikoy, ma si te siw! Ya Irikoy, ma si jaŋ sanni, ma si te sulum!

²For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult; And they that hate thee have lifted up the head.

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

³ Zama a go, ni ibarey go ga kosongu hanya-hanya, Ni konnakoy na ngey boŋ tunandi.

³Thy take crafty counsel against thy people, And consult together against thy hidden ones.

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

⁴ I goono ga munaficitaray dabariyaŋ te ni jama se, I goono ga saawareyaŋ gurum ni wane tugantey boŋ.

⁴They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; That the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.

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

⁵ I ne: «Kaa, iri m'i tuusu, I kundatara goono yaŋo ma ban, Zama boro kulu ma si ye ka fongu Israyla maa gaa koyne.»

⁵For they have consulted together with one consent; Against thee do they make a covenant:

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

⁶ Zama care banda no i go ga saaware te da bine folloŋ, I goono ga sappe kayandi ka gaaba nda nin.

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

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

⁷ Edom kuuru fuwey, da Isumeylancey, Da Mowab, da Hagarancey,

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

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

⁸ Da Gebal, da Amon, da Amalek, Da Filistiya, da Tir gorokoy,

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

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

⁹ Assiriya mo na nga boŋ margu nd'ey, I na Lotu izey no gaakasinay. (Wa dangay)

⁹Do thou unto them as unto Midian, As to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the river Kishon;

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

¹⁰ Ma te i se sanda mate kaŋ cine ni te Midiyan se, Da Sisera da Yabin se mo Cison gooro ra,

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

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

¹¹ I halaci En-Dor ra, I ciya sanda birji laabo se.

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

¹² Ni ma naŋ i jine borey ma ciya sanda Oreb da Zeyeb cine, Oho, i mayraykoyey kulu ma ciya sanda Zeeba da Zalmunna,

¹²Who said, Let us take to ourselves in possession The habitations of God.

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

¹³ Ngey kaŋ ne: «Iri ma Irikoy kurey nangey ta i ma ciya iri bumbey mayray hari.»

¹³O my God, make them like the whirling dust; As stubble before the wind.

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

¹⁴ Ya ay Irikoyo, m'i ciya sanda alma haw kusa, Sanda du kaŋ go haw jine,

¹⁴As the fire that burneth the forest, And as the flame that setteth the mountains on fire,

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

¹⁵ Sanda danji kaŋ goono ga saaji ŋwa, Sanda danji beele kaŋ goono ga tondi kuukuyaŋ diyandi.

¹⁵So pursue them with thy tempest, And terrify them with thy storm.

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

¹⁶ M'i gana k'i kankamandi nda ni haw gaabikoono yaadin cine, M'i humburandi gumo mo da ni haw gaabikoono.

¹⁶Fill their faces with confusion, That they may seek thy name, O Jehovah.

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

¹⁷ Ya Rabbi, m'i moydumey toonandi nda haawi, Zama i ma ni maa ceeci.

¹⁷Let them be put to shame and dismayed for ever; Yea, let them be confounded and perish;

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

¹⁸ I ma haaw, i ma humburu ka sukurutu hal abada, Oho, naŋ i ma di kayna ka halaci.

¹⁸That they may know that thou alone, whose name is Jehovah, Art the Most High over all the earth.

¹⁹ Zama i ma bay kaŋ nin, ni maa no ga ti Rabbi, Ni hinne no ga ti Beeray-Beeri-Koyo ndunnya kulu boŋ.
