Psalms 5
1 Give ear to my words, O Jehovah, Consider my (meditation)
Kwa mwimbishaji. Kwa filimbi. Zaburi ya Daudi. Ee Bwana, tegea sikio maneno yangu, uangalie kupiga kite kwangu.
2 Hearken to the voice of my cry, my King, and my God, for to thee do I pray.
Sikiliza kilio changu ili unisaidie, Mfalme wangu na Mungu wangu, kwa maana kwako ninaomba.
3 O Jehovah, in the morning thou shall hear my voice. In the morning I will direct to thee, and will keep watch.
Asubuhi, unasikia sauti yangu, Ee Bwana; asubuhi naleta haja zangu mbele zako, na kusubiri kwa matumaini.
4 For thou are not a God who has pleasure in wickedness. Evil shall not sojourn with thee.
Wewe si Mungu unayefurahia uovu, kwako mtu mwovu hataishi.
5 The arrogant shall not stand in thy sight. Thou hate all workers of iniquity.
Wenye kiburi hawawezi kusimama mbele yako, unawachukia wote watendao mabaya.
6 Thou will destroy those who speak lies. Jehovah abhors the blood-thirsty and deceitful man.
Unawaangamiza wasemao uongo. Bwana huwachukia wamwagao damu na wadanganyifu.
7 But as for me, in the abundance of thy loving kindness I will come into thy house. In thy fear I will worship toward thy holy temple.
Lakini mimi, kwa rehema zako kuu, nitakuja katika nyumba yako, kwa unyenyekevu, nitasujudu kuelekea Hekalu lako takatifu.
8 Lead me, O Jehovah, in thy righteousness because of my enemies. Make thy way straight before my face.
Niongoze katika haki yako, Ee Bwana, kwa sababu ya adui zangu, nyoosha njia yako mbele yangu.
9 For there is no faithfulness in their mouth. Their inward part is very wickedness. Their throat is an open sepulcher. With their tongue they deceive.
Hakuna neno kinywani mwao linaloweza kuaminika, mioyo yao imejaa maangamizi. Koo lao ni kaburi lililo wazi, kwa ndimi zao, wao hunena udanganyifu.
10 Hold them guilty, O God. Let them fall by their own counsels. Thrust them out in the multitude of their transgressions. For they have rebelled against thee.
Uwatangaze kuwa wenye hatia, Ee Mungu! Hila zao ziwe anguko lao wenyewe. Wafukuzie mbali kwa sababu ya dhambi zao nyingi, kwa kuwa wamekuasi wewe.
11 But let all those who take refuge in thee rejoice. Let them ever shout for joy, because thou defend them. Let those also who love thy name be joyful in thee.
Lakini wote wakimbiliao kwako na wafurahi, waimbe kwa shangwe daima. Ueneze ulinzi wako juu yao, ili wale wapendao jina lako wapate kukushangilia.
12 For thou will bless the righteous man, O Jehovah. Thou will encompass him with favor as with a shield. (Selah)
Kwa hakika, Ee Bwana, unawabariki wenye haki, unawazunguka kwa wema wako kama ngao.
