1 I laahow, waxaad tahay Ilaahay, oo anna goor hore ayaan ku doondooni doonaa, Naftaydu adigay kuu oomman tahay, jidhkayguna aduu kuu xiisoodaa, Anoo jooga dhul engegan oo daal miidhan ah oo aan biyo lahayn.

O God, You are my God; I shall seek You earnestly; My soul thirsts for You, my flesh yearns for You, In a dry and weary land where there is no water.

2 S i aan u arko xooggaaga iyo ammaantaadaba aawadeed, Ayaan kaa fiiriyey meesha quduuska ah.

Thus I have seen You in the sanctuary, To see Your power and Your glory.

3 W aayo, raxmaddaadu way ka sii wanaagsan tahay nolol, Haddaba bushimahaygu way ku ammaani doonaan.

Because Your lovingkindness is better than life, My lips will praise You.

4 S idaas daraaddeed waan kugu mahadnaqayaa intaan noolahay, Oo gacmahaygana kor baan ugu qaadi doonaa magacaaga aawadiis.

So I will bless You as long as I live; I will lift up my hands in Your name.

5 N aftaydu waxay u dhergi doontaa sida mid dhuux iyo baruur uga dhergo, Oo afkayguna wuxuu kugu ammaani doonaa bushimo faraxsan

My soul is satisfied as with marrow and fatness, And my mouth offers praises with joyful lips.

6 K olkaan sariirtayda kugu soo xusuusto Oo aan kaa fikiro habeenka markaan soo jeedo.

When I remember You on my bed, I meditate on You in the night watches,

7 W aayo, waxaad ii ahayd caawimaad, Oo hooska baalashaada ayaan ku rayrayn doonaa.

For You have been my help, And in the shadow of Your wings I sing for joy.

8 N aftaydu adigay ku raacdaa, Oo gacantaada midigna way i tiirisaa. (Selaah)

My soul clings to You; Your right hand upholds me.

9 L aakiinse kuwa naftayda u doondoonaya inay halligaan aawadeed, Waxay geli doonaan dhulka meelaha ugu hooseeya.

But those who seek my life to destroy it, Will go into the depths of the earth.

10 W axaa iyaga loo gacangelin doonaa xoogga seefta, Oo waxay qayb u noqon doonaan dawacooyinka.

They will be delivered over to the power of the sword; They will be a prey for foxes.

11 L aakiinse boqorku wuxuu ku rayrayn doonaa Ilaah, Mid kasta oo isaga ku dhaartaa wuu faani doonaa, Waayo, kuwa beenta sheega afkooda waa la aamusiin doonaa.

But the king will rejoice in God; Everyone who swears by Him will glory, For the mouths of those who speak lies will be stopped.
