Psalms 30

1 A Psalm. A song for the dedication of the temple. Of David. I will exalt You, O LORD, for You have lifted me up and have not allowed my foes to rejoice over me.

Utenzi wa kuweka wakfu hekalu. Zaburi ya Daudi. Nitakutukuza wewe, Ee Bwana, kwa kuwa umeniinua kutoka vilindi, na hukuacha adui zangu washangilie juu yangu.

2 O LORD my God, I cried to You for help, and You healed me.

Ee Bwana, Mungu wangu, nilikuita unisaidie na wewe umeniponya.

3 O LORD, You pulled me up from Sheol; You spared me from descending into the Pit. (Sheol h7585)

Ee Bwana, umenitoa Kuzimu, umeniokoa nisishuke kwenye shimo la mauti. (Sheol h7585)

4 Sing to the LORD, O you His saints, and praise His holy name.

Mwimbieni Bwana, enyi watakatifu wake; lisifuni jina lake takatifu.

5 For His anger is fleeting, but His favor lasts a lifetime. Weeping may stay the night, but joy comes in the morning.

Kwa maana hasira yake ni ya muda mfupi, bali upendo wake hudumu siku zote. Inawezekana kilio kiwepo usiku kucha, lakini asubuhi kukawa na furaha.

6 In prosperity I said, “I will never be shaken.”

Nilipofanikiwa nilisema, “Sitatikiswa kamwe.”

7 O LORD, You favored me; You made my mountain stand strong. When You hid Your face, I was dismayed.

Ee Bwana, uliponijalia, uliuimarisha mlima wangu, lakini ulipouficha uso wako nilifadhaika.

8 To You, O LORD, I called, and I begged my Lord for mercy:

Kwako wewe, Ee Bwana, niliita, kwa Bwana niliomba rehema:

9 “What gain is there in my bloodshed, in my descent to the Pit? Will the dust praise You? Will it proclaim Your faithfulness?

“Kuna faida gani katika kuangamia kwangu? Katika kushuka kwangu shimoni? Je, mavumbi yatakusifu? Je, yatatangaza uaminifu wako?

10 Hear me, O LORD, and have mercy; O LORD, be my helper.”

Ee Bwana, unisikie na kunihurumia, Ee Bwana, uwe msaada wangu.”

11 You turned my mourning into dancing; You peeled off my sackcloth and clothed me with joy,

Uligeuza maombolezo yangu kuwa kucheza, ulinivua nguo za gunia ukanivika shangwe,

12 that my heart may sing Your praises and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks forever.

ili moyo wangu uweze kukusifu na usikae kimya. Ee Bwana Mungu wangu, nitakushukuru milele.
