1 I laaha xaqnimadaydow, markii aan ku baryo i maqal, Markii aan cidhiidhi ku jirayba meel baad ii bannaysay, Ii naxariiso oo baryadayda maqal.

Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness: thou hast enlarged me when I was in distress; have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.

2 B inu-aadmigow, ilaa goormaa sharaftaydu sharafjab u rogmanaysaa? Ilaa goormaad wax aan micne lahayn jeclaanaysaan? Oo ilaa goormaad been doondoonaysaan? (Selaah)

O ye sons of men, how long will ye turn my glory into shame? how long will ye love vanity, and seek after leasing? Selah.

3 L aakiinse ogaada in Rabbigu gooni ahaan isugu soocay kii cibaado leh, Rabbigu wuu maqli doonaa markii aan u yeedho isaga.

But know that the Lord hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the Lord will hear when I call unto him.

4 C adhooda oo ha dembaabina, Qalbigiinna la hadla markii aad sariirtiinna ku jiiftaan, oo aamusa. (Selaah)

Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah.

5 B ixiya allabaryadii xaqnimada, Oo Rabbiga isku halleeya.

Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the Lord.

6 W axaa jira kuwo badan oo yidhaahda, Bal yaa wanaag na tusaya? Rabbiyow, iftiinka wejigaaga nagu ifi.

There be many that say, Who will shew us any good? Lord, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.

7 W axaad qalbigayga gelisay farxad Ka sii badan tan ay helaan markii hadhuudhkooda iyo khamrigoodu ay kordhaan.

Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than in the time that their corn and their wine increased.

8 N abad baan ku jiifsanayaa oo aan ku seexanayaa, Waayo, Rabbiyow, adigoo keliya ayaa ammaan igu bariiya.

I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, Lord, only makest me dwell in safety.
