Psalms 5
1 To the chief music-maker on wind instruments. A Psalm. Of David. Give ear to my words, O Lord; give thought to my heart-searchings.
Sikiliza nikuitapo, Yahweh; tazama kuugua kwangu.
2 Let the voice of my cry come to you, my King and my God; for to you will I make my prayer.
Sikiliza sauti yangu nikuitapo, Ee Mfalme wangu na Mungu wangu, kwa kuwa ni kwako Bwana naomba.
3 My voice will come to you in the morning, O Lord; in the morning will I send my prayer to you, and keep watch.
Yahweh; sikia kilio changu asubuhi; na asubuhi nitaleta dua yangu kwako na kungoja kwa matarajio.
4 For you are not a God who takes pleasure in wrongdoing; there is no evil with you.
Hakika wewe ni Mungu usiye kubaliana na uovu; watu waovu hawawezi kuwa wageni wako.
5 The sons of pride have no place before you; you are a hater of all workers of evil.
Wenye kiburi hawata simama katika uwepo wako; wewe unawachukia wote wanaofanya maovu.
6 You will send destruction on those whose words are false; the cruel man and the man of deceit are hated by the Lord.
Nawe utawaharibu waongo; Yahweh huwadharau vurugu na watu wadanganyifu.
7 But as for me, I will come into your house, in the full measure of your mercy; and in your fear I will give worship, turning my eyes to your holy Temple.
Lakini kwangu mimi, kwa sababu ya ukuu na uaminifu wa agano lako, nitakuja nyumbani mwako; na kwa heshima nitakuinamia mbele ya hekalu lako takatifu.
8 Be my guide, O Lord, in the ways of your righteousness, because of those who are against me; make your way straight before my face.
Oh Bwana, uniongoze katika haki yako kwa sababu ya adui zangu; usawazishe njia yako mbele yangu.
9 For no faith may be put in their words; their inner part is nothing but evil; their throat is like an open place for the dead; smooth are the words of their tongues.
Kwa kuwa midomoni mwao hamna ukweli; utu wao wa ndani ni mwovu; makoo yao ni kaburi lililo wazi; husifu kinafiki kwa ulimi wao.
10 Send them to destruction, O Lord; let their evil designs be the cause of their fall; let them be forced out by all their sins; because they have gone against your authority.
Mungu, wafanye kuwa na hatia; mipango yao iwe kuanguka kwao! Kwa ajili ya makosa yao mengi uwatoe nje, kwa kuwa wamekuasi wewe.
11 But let all those who put their faith in you be glad with cries of joy at all times, and let all the lovers of your name be glad in you.
Bali wale wanao kukimbilia wafurahi; uwafanye wapige kelele kwa shangwe siku zote kwa sababu unawapigania; uwafanye wenye furaha ndani yako, wale walipendao jina lako.
12 For you, Lord, will send a blessing on the upright man; your grace will be round him, and you will be his strength.
Kwa maana utawabariki wenye haki, Yahweh; utawazunguka kwa neema kama ngao.
