Zabura 16
1 Miktam ne na Dawuda. Ka kiyaye ni, ya Allah, gama a cikinka nake samun mafaka.
A Poem by David. Preserve me, God, for I take refuge in you.
2 Na ce wa Ubangiji, “Kai ne shugabana; in ba tare da kai ba, ba ni da wani abu mai kyau.”
My soul, you have said to Yahweh, “You are my Lord. Apart from you I have no good thing.”
3 Game da tsarkakan da suke cikin ƙasar kuwa, su ne masu ɗaukakar da dukan farin cikina ya dangana.
As for the saints who are in the earth, they are the excellent ones in whom is all my delight.
4 Baƙin ciki zai ƙaru wa waɗanda suke bin waɗansu alloli. Ba zan zuba musu hadayarsu ta jini ba ko in ambaci sunayensu da bakina.
Their sorrows shall be multiplied who give gifts to another god. Their drink offerings of blood I will not offer, nor take their names on my lips.
5 Ubangiji, ka ba ni rabona da kwaf ɗin na; ka kiyaye rabona,
Yahweh assigned my portion and my cup. You made my lot secure.
6 Iyakoki sun fāɗo mini a wurare masu daɗi; tabbatacce ina da gādo mai bansha’awa.
The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places. Yes, I have a good inheritance.
7 Zan yabi Ubangiji, wanda yake ba ni shawara; ko da dare ma zuciyata kan koya mini.
I will bless Yahweh, who has given me counsel. Yes, my heart instructs me in the night seasons.
8 Kullum nakan sa Ubangiji a gabana. Gama yana a hannun damana, ba zan jijjigu ba.
I have set Yahweh always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
9 Saboda haka zuciyata tana murna harshena kuma yana farin ciki; jikina kuma zai zauna lafiya,
Therefore my heart is glad, and my tongue rejoices. My body shall also dwell in safety.
For you will not leave my soul in Sheol, neither will you allow your holy one to see corruption. (Sheol h7585)
11 Ka sanar da ni hanyar rai; za ka cika ni da farin ciki a gabanka, da madawwamin jin daɗi a hannun damarka.
You will show me the path of life. In your presence is fullness of joy. In your right hand there are pleasures forever more.
