1 W hy do You stand afar off, O Lord ? Why do You hide Yourself in times of trouble?

Rabbiyow, maxaad meesha fog u istaagtay? Oo maxaad u dhuumataa markii dhibaato jirto?

2 I n pride the wicked hotly pursue the afflicted; Let them be caught in the plots which they have devised.

Kii shar leh oo kibir badan ayaa miskiinka si kulul u eryada, Xeeladdii ay hindiseen iyaga ha la rogmato.

3 F or the wicked boasts of his heart’s desire, And the greedy man curses and spurns the Lord.

Waayo, kii shar lahu wuxuu ku faanaa waxa qalbigiisu jecel yahay, Oo kii damaci ahuna Rabbiga wuu nacaa, wuuna quudhsadaa.

4 T he wicked, in the haughtiness of his countenance, does not seek Him. All his thoughts are, “ There is no God.”

Kii shar lahu isagoo wejigiisa kibir ka muuqdo wuxuu yidhaahdaa, Isagu waxba i weyddiisan maayo. Fikirradiisa oo dhammu waxaa weeye, Ilaah ma jiro.

5 H is ways prosper at all times; Your judgments are on high, out of his sight; As for all his adversaries, he snorts at them.

Jidadkiisuu ku adag yahay had iyo goorba, Xukummadaaduna waa ka sarreeyaan isaga, waana ka fog yihiin, Oo cadaawayaashiisa oo dhanna wuu wada fudaydsadaa.

6 H e says to himself, “ I will not be moved; Throughout all generations I will not be in adversity.”

Oo wuxuu isyidhaahdaa, Anigu weligay dhaqdhaqaaqi maayo, Oo tan iyo ka ab ka ab xumaanu i heli mayso.

7 H is mouth is full of curses and deceit and oppression; Under his tongue is mischief and wickedness.

Afkiisa waxaa ka buuxa habaar iyo khiyaano iyo dulmi, Oo carrabkiisana waxaa ku hoos jira belaayo iyo xumaan.

8 H e sits in the lurking places of the villages; In the hiding places he kills the innocent; His eyes stealthily watch for the unfortunate.

Isagu wuxuu fadhiistaa tuulooyinka meelahooda lagu dhuunto, Oo kan aan xaqa qabinna wuxuu ku dilaa meelaha qarsoon, Oo indhihiisuna waxay si qarsoon hoos uga fiiriyaan miskiinka.

9 H e lurks in a hiding place as a lion in his lair; He lurks to catch the afflicted; He catches the afflicted when he draws him into his net.

Isagu wuxuu ku dhuuntaa meel qarsoon sida libaax godkiisa ku jira, Oo wuxuu u gaadaa inuu miskiinka qabsado, Oo intuu miskiinka qabsado ayuu ku soo jiitaa shabaggiisa.

10 H e crouches, he bows down, And the unfortunate fall by his mighty ones.

Wuu foororsadaa, oo hoos isu gaabiyaa, Oo masaakiinta waxaa ridda gacanta kuwiisa xoogga badan.

11 H e says to himself, “God has forgotten; He has hidden His face; He will never see it.”

Oo wuxuu isyidhaahdaa, Ilaah waa i illoobay, Oo wejigiisiina wuu qariyey, weligiisna ima arki doono.

12 A rise, O Lord; O God, lift up Your hand. Do not forget the afflicted.

Rabbiyow, Ilaahow, sara joogso, oo gacantaada kor u qaad, Oo masaakiinta ha illoobin.

13 W hy has the wicked spurned God? He has said to himself, “You will not require it.”

Bal kii shar lahu muxuu Ilaah u quudhsadaa? Oo muxuu qalbigiisa uga leeyahay, Adigu waxba i weyddiisan maysid?

14 Y ou have seen it, for You have beheld mischief and vexation to take it into Your hand. The unfortunate commits himself to You; You have been the helper of the orphan.

Waxaas baad aragtay, waayo, waad u jeeddaa belaayada iyo xanaaqa, inaad gacantaada ku aargudatid aawadeed, Miskiinku adiguu isu kaa dhiibaa, Waayo, adigu waxaad tahay agoonka kaalmeeyihiisa.

15 B reak the arm of the wicked and the evildoer, Seek out his wickedness until You find none.

Kii shar leh gacantiisa jebi, Oo sharrowga xumaantiisana doondoon ilaa aad mid dambe weydid.

16 T he Lord is King forever and ever; Nations have perished from His land.

Rabbigu waa boqor weligiis iyo weligiisba, Oo quruumaha oo dhammuna dalkiisa way ka wada baabba'aan.

17 O Lord, You have heard the desire of the humble; You will strengthen their heart, You will incline Your ear

Rabbiyow, waad maqashay waxay kuwa is-hoosaysiiyaa doonayaan, Oo qalbigooda waad diyaarin doontaa, oo dhegtaadana waad u dhigi doontaa,

18 T o vindicate the orphan and the oppressed, So that man who is of the earth will no longer cause terror.

Si aad gartooda u naqdid agoonta iyo kuwa la dulmay, Si aan dadka dunidu mar dambe u noqon kuwo laga cabsado.
